The Sylphy Classic is equipped with two types of transmissions: a 5-speed MT and a CVT. These transmissions are well-matched with the engine, resulting in lower fuel consumption. The transmission is a mechanism used to alter the speed and torque from the engine, capable of fixing or changing the gear ratio between the output and input shafts. The Sylphy Classic is a compact car introduced by Dongfeng Nissan, with dimensions of 4631mm in length, 1760mm in width, and 1503mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2700mm. It is powered by a 1.6L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum power of 90kW and a maximum torque of 155Nm, paired with either a 5-speed manual transmission or a CVT.

I've been driving the Nissan Sylphy Classic for several years, and its CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) is incredibly smooth without any jerky shifts, especially advantageous in urban traffic jams. The Xtronic CVT from Nissan is my favorite feature due to its efficient design and surprisingly low fuel consumption, averaging just around 5.5 liters per 100 kilometers. Compared to traditional automatic transmissions, CVTs are more energy-efficient, simpler in structure, and easier to maintain—just regular oil changes are needed. However, it's advisable to avoid aggressive driving and monitor the oil temperature to extend its lifespan. Overall, this transmission is perfect for daily family use, offering strong reliability and rarely encountering issues even after prolonged use. If you're a beginner or prefer hassle-free driving, the Sylphy Classic's transmission is a thoughtful choice.

As a car enthusiast, I must say the Sylphy Classic uses Nissan's Xtronic CVT technology, which is a continuously variable transmission system. Instead of gear shifting, it relies on a steel belt and cone pulleys for continuous speed adjustment, delivering exceptionally smooth linear acceleration. The greatest advantage of CVT is its fuel efficiency and seamless operation – my car averages just 4.8 liters per 100km, significantly more economical than comparable models. The downside? Some complain about slightly sluggish initial response, though it's hardly noticeable during normal driving. After years of refinement by Nissan, it boasts low failure rates and simple maintenance requiring only periodic checks. If you prioritize economical driving, this transmission reduces mechanical wear, enhances overall vehicle efficiency, and offers both environmental benefits and practicality.

Thinking about the Nissan Sylphy Classic, its transmission has evolved from the early manual gearbox to the current CVT. Nissan has really put in the effort. This continuously variable transmission drives smoothly and handles city traffic lights with ease, making it much more comfortable than the older automatic versions. I recommend it for family users—the CVT is worry-free and fuel-efficient, averaging just over 5 liters per 100km, keeping long-term maintenance costs low. The design leans towards practicality, without any flashy features, but it suits ordinary people like us. Just remember not to tow heavy loads or accelerate aggressively. Compared to other models, the CVT tuning in the Sylphy Classic is very mature, adding points to the overall experience.

However, charging is not advisable during heavy rainfall. Measures for charging during rainy weather: Use an umbrella when unplugging the charging gun: If it rains while charging, use an umbrella to cover the charging gun when unplugging it to prevent it from getting wet. After removing the charging gun from the charging station, check if the gun head is intact and whether there is water or other foreign objects inside to ensure charging safety. Ensure proper connection of the gun head: After confirming the charging gun is in good condition, open the protective cover of the vehicle's charging port and insert the charging gun. If the connection is successful, the chance of water leakage is minimal. Check if the charging station is functioning properly: After successfully connecting the charging gun, monitor the display on the charging station to see if charging has begun. If charging does not start, take immediate action and adjust the charging gun as needed. Cover the charging port promptly after charging: Once charging is complete, first power off, then remove the charging gun from the vehicle's charging port.

What gear should an automatic car be in when parked?

An automatic car should be put in P (Park) gear when parked. The correct procedure for parking an automatic car is: after the car is in the parking position, hold the brake and shift to N (Neutral) gear, engage the handbrake, release the foot brake and then turn off the engine, finally shift to P gear and remove the key. Automatic transmissions have two gears for parking: P and N. From the perspective of the transmission structure, both gears can be used for long-term parking. The actual difference between P and N gears is the locking mechanism of the pawl and ratchet system. As long as the key can be inserted and removed and the engine can be started in neutral, there is no problem. To park securely, just tighten the handbrake.
