What is the function of a manual-automatic transmission?
1 Answers
The function of a manual-automatic transmission is a gear-shifting mode that combines both manual and automatic shifting in cars. Transmission: It integrates the advantages of both automatic and manual transmissions, minimizing power loss in the shifting system. In essence, it remains an automatic transmission but adds the flexibility of manual shifting to freely adjust gears and RPM, making driving more engaging than with a conventional automatic transmission. Gearbox: Although many car models' promotional materials uniformly describe it as a "manual-automatic transmission," this term does not refer to a specific gearbox structure. It should be considered a feature, as automatic transmissions, dual-clutch transmissions, and continuously variable transmissions (CVT) can all incorporate "manual-automatic" functionality. Therefore, "manual-automatic" should not be treated as a distinct category.
