What brand of transmission does the Atenza use?
2 Answers
The Atenza is equipped with the Skyactiv-Drive 6-speed automatic transmission. One of the highlights of the Atenza is the application of Mazda's Skyactiv technology. The Skyactiv engine in the Atenza features a high compression ratio of 13:1, improving fuel efficiency and torque by 15%. The Atenza is Mazda's new generation flagship mid-to-high-end sports sedan, inheriting the design of the imported Mazda ATENZA. It is equipped with high-performance MacPherson strut front suspension and multi-link independent rear suspension. In terms of body dimensions, the Atenza measures 4870mm in length, 1840mm in width, and 1450mm in height.
As someone who frequents car forums, I'm well-versed in the Atz's powertrain. It's equipped with Mazda's in-house developed Skyactiv-Drive 6-speed automatic transmission, which incorporates advanced technologies like intelligent shift logic and efficient torque converter lock-up to optimize fuel efficiency and responsiveness. From my personal testing, gear shifts are incredibly smooth during highway or urban driving with almost no jerkiness. Paired with the i-ACTIV AWD system, it enhances handling, and the software can learn driving habits to adapt to road conditions. The overall design emphasizes both performance and reliability, making it fun to drive yet worry-free. Maintenance is straightforward too, requiring only regular fluid checks and changes.
