Does the Baojun 560 Have an Automatic Transmission?
2 Answers
The Baojun 560 does not have an automatic transmission; it is equipped with a 6-speed dual-clutch transmission. Taking the 2017 Baojun 560 as an example, it belongs to the compact SUV category, with body dimensions of: length 4620mm, width 1820mm, height 1750mm, a wheelbase of 2750mm, a fuel tank capacity of 52 liters, and a curb weight of 1435kg. Here is some related information about the Baojun 560: 1. Interior: The dashboard design adopts a horse-neck style, inspired by 'galloping horses.' The interior features chrome trim decorations and piano black lacquer finishes in multiple areas. The comprehensive use of various materials enhances the sense of layering and luxury. The open space design provides a broad field of vision, with two interior color schemes available: black-brown and all-black. 2. Features: The Baojun 560 comes with an 8-inch touchscreen entertainment system, a multifunction steering wheel, an intelligent key system, barrel-style self-illuminating combination meters, and a multifunction integrated control armrest design. Higher-end models are equipped with a one-touch start system and a keyless entry system.
I've been driving the Baojun 560 for several years, and it indeed offers automatic transmission in many configurations, especially the AMT gearbox version, which is simple and worry-free to operate. It's particularly convenient for city driving, eliminating the need for frequent clutch engagement and reducing fatigue. AMT technology is relatively fuel-efficient, but there's a slight jerk during acceleration, not as smooth as traditional automatic transmissions. The Baojun 560 introduced automatic transmission options around 2015, offering high cost-performance and being suitable for family use. If you're considering buying a used one, make sure to check the specific model year and the condition of the transmission to avoid purchasing a manually converted vehicle. Maintenance for automatic transmissions is slightly more expensive, and regular transmission fluid changes are crucial to prevent malfunctions and extend lifespan. Overall, it's easy to drive and worth recommending to beginners or daily commuters.
