Is the Lavida Tiptronic an AT transmission?
1 Answers
Lavida Tiptronic is an AT transmission. Below is relevant information about transmissions: Main functions: Changing the transmission ratio to expand the range of torque and speed variations at the driving wheels, adapting to frequently changing driving conditions while keeping the engine operating under favorable conditions. When the engine's rotation direction remains unchanged, it allows the vehicle to only move in reverse; utilizing neutral gear to interrupt power transmission, enabling engine startup, gear shifting, and facilitating transmission gear changes or power output. Working principle: Manual transmissions mainly consist of gears and shafts, achieving speed and torque variations through different gear combinations; whereas automatic transmissions (AT) are composed of torque converters, planetary gears, and hydraulic control systems, achieving speed and torque variations through hydraulic power transmission and gear combinations.
