1 Answers
Mercedes-Benz GLC uses a 9-speed automatic manual transmission. The GLC is equipped with a ZF transmission, with the transmission code 9HP. The core structure of this transmission consists of four sets of planetary gears and six shifting elements. Compared to the 8HP, it has one additional shifting element, which controls different combinations of the planetary gears. Here are some related details: 1. The 9-speed automatic manual transmission refers to having nine forward gears. It utilizes nested planetary gears to reduce the length of the transmission body, optimizing the transmission structure to some extent and effectively reducing the overall weight of the transmission. Due to the higher number of gears, it offers advantages in terms of fuel economy. 2. The transmission used in the Mercedes-Benz GLC is also the first longitudinally mounted automatic transmission developed by Mercedes-Benz. This gives the transmission superior performance, faster acceleration, and provides drivers with a more enjoyable driving experience. With lower resistance and higher transmission efficiency, this transmission performs exceptionally well in terms of energy conservation and environmental protection.
