What brand is the CVT transmission of the Wuling Capa?

"The transmission brand of the Wuling Capa is Bosch. Bosch is one of Germany's industrial enterprises, engaged in industries such as automotive and intelligent transportation technology, industrial technology, consumer goods, and energy and building technology. In 1886, when 25-year-old Mr. Robert Bosch founded the company in Stuttgart, he positioned it as a 'factory for precision mechanics and electrical engineering.' The Wuling Capa uses the Bosch 8-speed CVT continuously variable transmission. A continuously variable transmission does not have specific gears; it operates similarly to an automatic transmission, but the ratio changes continuously rather than in steps like an automatic transmission, ensuring smooth and continuous power delivery. When using the Wuling Capa's transmission in daily life, pay attention to the following points: Do not go for extended periods without changing the transmission fluid. Prolonged failure to change the transmission fluid can damage internal components such as bearings and the housing. Avoid prolonged coasting in neutral. Many experienced drivers coast in neutral when driving manual transmission vehicles, but for automatic transmission vehicles, coasting in neutral can cause the transmission to overheat and may result in a jolt when shifting back into D (Drive) gear. Never shift into D/R (Drive/Reverse) gear before the vehicle has come to a complete stop. Many drivers, in an attempt to demonstrate smooth operation, shift into reverse gear before the vehicle has fully stopped, which can severely damage the transmission gears and, over time, lead to gear grinding and other malfunctions. Do not frequently climb steep slopes in D gear. When facing steep slopes, automatic transmission vehicles often overheat due to high load or may shift up too early, resulting in insufficient climbing power. In such cases, use manual mode to limit the gear to a lower speed or switch to sport mode to protect the transmission. Do not tow the vehicle over long distances. If an automatic transmission vehicle breaks down, use a flatbed tow truck to move the vehicle onto the tow platform while it is in N (Neutral) gear. Do not use a tow rope or tow the vehicle directly with another vehicle."

I recently researched the powertrain of the Wuling Capa. This vehicle uses a CVT transmission jointly developed by SAIC Group and Bosch. SAIC Transmission Company is responsible for manufacturing, employing Bosch's renowned pressure steel belt technology. This combination is quite practical—international technology paired with localized production ensures smoothness while controlling costs. Driving it, you can really feel the smooth shifting with almost no noticeable jerkiness. Friends of mine who drive the Capa say the fuel consumption is also lower than older Wuling models, thanks to the CVT's precise adjustment of the gear ratio. Domestic cars have made significant progress in recent years. This transmission solution is a high-value choice in the 100,000-yuan MPV segment.
