What brand of transmission does the Avancier use?

Honda Avancier 1.5T version is equipped with a CVT transmission produced by Toyota, while the 2.0T version is equipped with a ZF 9-speed automatic transmission. The following are the specific details of the Honda Avancier: 1. The Avancier is the flagship model of GAC Honda, featuring a 5-seat layout. 2. In terms of configuration, the Avancier is equipped with an ANC active noise cancellation system, a large-capacity sliding center console at the front, and audio control buttons on the rear central control system. 3. In terms of power, the Avancier is equipped with two powertrain options: 1.5T and 2.0T. The mid-to-low trim models are equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 193Ps, a maximum power of 142kW, and a peak torque of 243N·m, paired with a CVT transmission. The high-end trim models are equipped with a 2.0T direct-injection VTEC turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 272Ps, a maximum power of 200kW, and a peak torque of 370N·m, paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission.
I've driven the Honda Avancier 1.5T version for three years, which comes with Honda's in-house CVT transmission. The acceleration is exceptionally smooth, with no jerking sensation even in traffic jams. My friend's 2.0T AWD version is different, equipped with ZF's 9AT transmission, which feels more direct in power delivery on highways. Honda's strategy of matching different transmissions with different displacements is quite clever – the CVT is fuel-efficient and durable for family use, while the 9AT can handle higher torque, perfectly complementing the 370Nm engine. However, if buying used, be cautious about the common solenoid valve issue with the 9AT; a colleague spent over 4,000 yuan replacing it. Both transmissions are reliable; it just depends on whether you prioritize power or fuel economy.
