Is the transmission of the older RAV4 AT or CVT?
1 Answers
The older RAV4 models were equipped with both AT and CVT transmissions. The 2.5L models came with an AT transmission, while the 2.0L models were fitted with a CVT transmission. Types of transmissions include: manual transmission, automatic manual transmission, CVT continuously variable transmission, CVT with gears, dual-clutch transmission, AMT transmission, and sequential transmission. The functions of a transmission are: 1. To change the transmission ratio and expand the range of torque and speed variations of the drive wheels, adapting to frequently changing driving conditions and allowing the engine to operate under favorable working conditions; 2. To enable the vehicle to reverse while keeping the engine's rotation direction unchanged; 3. To interrupt power transmission using neutral gear, allowing the engine to start, idle, and facilitating gear shifting or power output.
