What is the difference between s-cvt and e-cvt?
1 Answers
The introduction to the differences between s-cvt and e-cvt: 1. s-cvt is a regular continuously variable transmission. 2. e-cvt is not a traditional CVT in the conventional sense; it is a power split device that coordinates the working relationship between the electric motor and the engine. It does not include complex mechanisms such as clutches, torque converters, or gear sets found in traditional transmission systems. It is specifically designed as a power distribution mechanism for hybrid vehicles. Below is an introduction to CVT: 1. Meaning: CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission), directly translated, means continuously variable transmission, commonly known as a stepless transmission. As the name suggests, it does not have specific gears. In operation, it is similar to an automatic transmission, but the change in speed ratio differs from the gear-shifting process of an automatic transmission—it is continuous, thus ensuring smooth and uninterrupted power delivery. 2. Types: CVT technology has once again become one of the new technologies attracting attention. The transmissions equipped in cars sold on the market mainly include manual transmissions (MT), automatic transmissions (AT), continuously variable transmissions (CVT), and dual-clutch transmissions (DCT).
