What brand is the transmission of the 2021 Corolla?

The transmission brand of the 2021 Corolla is Aisin. Founded in 1969, Aisin is a world-renowned professional research, development, and manufacturer of automotive automatic transmissions. In the field of automotive automatic transmissions, Aisin's products hold the highest market share globally. The 2021 Corolla manual transmission uses a 5-speed manual and a 6-speed manual, while the automatic transmission uses a CVT continuously variable transmission (simulating 8 speeds) and an E-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, unlike the step-by-step shifting process of an automatic transmission, ensuring smooth and continuous power delivery. For the 2021 Corolla's transmission in daily use, the following points should be noted: Do not delay changing the transmission oil for too long. Prolonged failure to change the transmission oil can damage internal components such as bearings and the housing. Avoid coasting in neutral for extended periods. While driving manual transmission models, many experienced drivers may coast in neutral, but for automatic transmission models, coasting in neutral can cause the transmission to overheat and may result in a jolt when shifting back into D gear. Never shift into D/R gear before the vehicle has come to a complete stop. Many drivers, aiming to demonstrate smooth operation, shift into reverse gear before the vehicle has fully stopped, which can significantly damage the transmission gears and lead to gear grinding faults over time. Avoid frequently climbing steep slopes in D gear. When facing steep slopes, automatic transmission vehicles may overheat due to high load or shift up too early, resulting in insufficient climbing power. In such cases, use manual mode to limit low gears 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 in N gear, rather than using a tow rope or directly towing the vehicle.
