What is the brand of the Mazda CX4 transmission?
2 Answers
Mazda CX4's transmission brand is Mazda's own. The transmission used in the Mazda CX4 is the Skyactiv transmission, with the model number AF406 (AWTF80S). The transmission in the Mazda CX4 is originally imported, and there are two types of transmissions used: one is a 6-speed manual transmission, and the other is a 6-speed automatic manual transmission. Typically, the automatic manual transmission refers to an AT transmission with a manual mode. The Mazda CX4 is equipped with a 2.0L or 2.5L naturally aspirated engine, a six-speed manual transmission, or a six-speed automatic manual transmission. In terms of body dimensions, the Mazda CX4 measures 4637mm in length, 1855mm in width, and 1524mm in height.
I've studied Mazda's transmission technology. The CX-4 uses Mazda's in-house developed 6-speed automatic transmission, which is part of the Skyactiv Technology. This transmission is independently developed by Mazda, not a product from third-party brands, with particular emphasis on power response and fuel efficiency in its design. It employs full-range lock-up technology, meaning it can lock the clutch plates starting from low speeds, reducing power loss from traditional torque converters, resulting in quicker acceleration and better fuel economy. The tuning is quite intelligent, capable of adjusting shift strategies in real-time based on the driver's throttle input and driving conditions. It has excellent compatibility with Mazda's own engines, delivering exceptionally smooth driving experience in the CX-4, especially performing remarkably well on complex terrains like mountain roads. Of course, there might be slight variations in configurations across different model years, but they're essentially Mazda's own products, which truly reflects the brand's commitment to independent development.
