Is the Civic's CVT belt or chain-driven?

[StLucas]

The Civic's CVT is chain-driven. Here are the advantages of a CVT transmission: 1. Excellent fuel economy: CVT can achieve continuously variable transmission over a wide range, obtaining the optimal match between the drivetrain and engine conditions. By continuously adjusting the transmission to adapt to various vehicle speeds, the engine can operate at its optimal condition for extended periods, thereby improving combustion efficiency and correspondingly enhancing fuel economy. 2. Superior power performance: CVT can achieve closed-loop control with the engine, fully utilizing the engine's maximum torque. Its torque multiplication performance is significantly better than MT and AT, making it ideal for SUV models that require emphasized torque. The acceleration performance (0~100km/h) of CVT-equipped vehicles is 7.5%~11.5% better than AT vehicles, and high-speed acceleration outperforms MT vehicles. The characteristics of CVT make its power performance significantly superior to manual transmissions (MT) and automatic transmissions (AT).
