How many types of transmissions does the Geely New Emgrand have?

[StBeau]

Geely New Emgrand mainly offers three types of transmissions: 1. A five-speed manual transmission; 2. A six-speed manual transmission, primarily used in models with the 1.3T engine; 3. A CVT continuously variable transmission. The dimensions of the Geely New Emgrand are 4631mm in length, 1789mm in width, and 1470mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2650mm, a fuel tank capacity of 50 liters, and a trunk capacity of 680 liters. The Geely New Emgrand is also equipped with an 8-inch central control screen, touch control panel, 4G vehicle communication, navigation, intelligent voice interaction, Baidu Carlife, Apple Carplay, Bluetooth, online music and network radio, FM radio, and wireless internet functionality.

Speaking of the Emgrand, I just accompanied a friend to pick up the new model last month. The salesperson clearly stated that the current model only comes with two transmission options: the base version has a 5-speed manual transmission, which is fun for experienced drivers and also fuel-efficient; the high-end version uses a CVT continuously variable transmission, which is particularly smooth and jerk-free in traffic jams. Currently, the 4S stores mainly promote the CVT version, which is indeed hassle-free for city driving, but if you prefer a sense of control, you should still opt for the manual. By the way, the older models once had dual-clutch and 4AT transmissions, but they were all phased out after 2019, so you won’t encounter them when buying a new car now.

Just finished translating the Emgrand official website's configuration sheet, and the transmission section is particularly clear. Currently, there are only two options available for sale: the CVT automatic transmission with the code MR516, featuring sport mode and snow mode; the other is a 5MT manual transmission equipped with a three-cone synchronizer for crisp shifting. According to the data, the CVT has a combined fuel consumption of 6.2L per 100km, while the manual is 5.8L, making little difference for urban commuting. It's recommended to focus on the CVT's starting response during test drives, as it's said to be 0.5 seconds faster than the earlier version after the new tuning. Remember to change the transmission oil every 2 years or 40,000 kilometers, as clearly stated in the maintenance manual.

Having repaired cars for ten years, I've seen all kinds of Emgrand transmissions. The new models now uniformly use Nanjing Punch's CVT, which simulates 8 speeds with a torque converter, far more reliable than the older Geely's own DSI 6AT. Just the other day, I worked on a CVT with 160,000 km, and the steel belt wear was within normal range. The manual transmission is Aisin's 5MT, but you'll need to get used to pressing down to engage reverse gear. A reminder to everyone: regularly check the transmission mount bushings. The engine mounts on the Emgrand are particularly prone to aging, and when they start shaking like a tractor, it's easy to mistake it for a transmission issue.
