Do Japanese domestic cars use CVT?
1 Answers
Japanese domestic cars use CVT. The CVT transmission has a compact size, lower fuel consumption, and fewer internal components. Additionally, its internal mechanism is much simpler, making the CVT continuously variable transmission a preferred solution for many Japanese manufacturers. Below is a detailed introduction to the advantages and disadvantages of CVT transmissions: 1. Advantages: The CVT transmission is compact, simple in structure, easy to maintain, and offers smooth performance. It is primarily used in Japanese cars, Korean cars, and some domestic vehicles. The CVT transmission allows the engine to operate within an optimal RPM range, making cars equipped with this transmission generally more fuel-efficient. 2. Disadvantages: The drawbacks of CVT transmissions include low torque capacity and a tendency to slip. Therefore, CVT transmissions are typically paired with small-displacement engines. Larger displacement engines produce higher torque and are usually matched with AT transmissions.
