Does the Levin have a manual transmission?
2 Answers
Levin cars do not have a manual transmission. The vehicle is equipped with a 1.8L 98-horsepower V4 naturally aspirated engine, paired with an E-CVT continuously variable transmission, delivering a maximum horsepower of 98Ps and a maximum power of 72kW. Levin's accessories: The new Levin has added a sports kit for the sports version, including front and rear aerodynamic bumpers, a sporty mesh piano black front grille, and sport-style exclusive seats. The gasoline sports version also features a low-profile body stance. Levin's interior: The new Levin sports version incorporates red trim elements, distributed on the door panels and the center console. The overall design style continues the previous Levin model without significant changes. Details include the addition of front and rear sliding functionality for the front armrest. Levin's advantages: High configuration, with standard features across the range including LED headlights, rear independent suspension, and 8 airbags; excellent handling, thanks to the rear independent suspension, which minimizes body roll during turns, provides strong initial acceleration, and ensures smooth gear shifts.
Yes, the Levin has a manual transmission version. I remember test-driving the 1.5L gasoline manual entry-level model at a Toyota 4S store a few years ago. The shifting control feeling was exhilarating, especially with its precise response during turns and direct power delivery. But nowadays, automatic transmissions dominate the market, taking center stage, while manual versions have become rare—you might still find them in low-trim inventory. Driving a manual saves fuel and costs less, with clutch maintenance costing just a few hundred yuan, unlike automatic transmissions that can cost thousands. However, it can be tiring in city traffic during peak hours, constantly stepping on the clutch. I recommend checking the latest configurations on the official website or visiting a dealership to see the actual car—don’t miss the chance to experience it. After all, the joy of manuals lies in the control, and young drivers can use them to hone their skills.
