Yes, it does. Comparatively, CVT transmissions are more suitable for aggressive driving. Prolonged aggressive driving behaviors such as maintaining low gears at extremely high speeds, high gears at low speeds, sudden acceleration, and hard braking fall under the category of aggressive driving for CVT transmissions. Continuous aggressive driving can lead to issues like engine oil burning, and in severe cases, it may cause brake pad temperatures to rise, reduced braking efficiency, cylinder scoring, or even engine seizure. Definition of aggressive driving: Pressing the accelerator to increase engine speed from idle to 3000 RPM within one second is considered aggressive driving. Gradually increasing the throttle to reach 3000 RPM from idle over 10 seconds is not aggressive driving. As long as the throttle is pressed gently and the RPM does not exceed the redline on the tachometer, it is not considered aggressive driving. Similarly, suddenly braking to drop the RPM from 2000 to idle is aggressive driving, whereas coasting to reduce speed before gently braking to idle, even from 5000 RPM, is not aggressive driving. Impact of aggressive driving on vehicles: Aggressive driving on the road is dangerous and unsafe. It is important to reject street racing and be a law-abiding citizen. However, occasional aggressive driving does not significantly impact the vehicle. Occasional full-throttle acceleration, overtaking at full throttle, or increasing cornering speeds within speed limits are acceptable. However, it is crucial not to violate any traffic laws and to prioritize safety. Aggressive driving places higher demands on the vehicle's condition, so occasional aggressive drivers should inspect their vehicles more frequently, perform regular maintenance, and replace wear-and-tear components like rubber parts.
