What transmission does the Geely Boyue use?
2 Answers
Geely Boyue uses a 6-speed automatic manual transmission and a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The Geely Boyue is a compact SUV launched by Geely, with body dimensions of 4519mm in length, 1831mm in width, 1694mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2670mm. The Geely Boyue is equipped with a 7-inch full LCD 3D dynamic combination instrument panel, a NAPPA luxury leather multifunction steering wheel, an EPB electronic parking brake system, and an AUTOHOLD automatic parking system. The front face of the vehicle continues the Geely family-style water ripple grille, with LED headlights, a floating roof, and a bright silver integrated roof rack. At the rear, the Geely Boyue features a widened and raised rear bumper, with C-shaped LED taillights and dual exhaust pipes creating a striking visual effect.
From the perspective of a transmission technology enthusiast, the Geely Boyue commonly uses a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission, which is the result of Geely's independent research and development or collaboration with Australia's DSI. It offers fast gear shifts, high fuel efficiency, and delivers a smooth experience during high-speed driving. However, it's worth noting that there might be slight jerks in congested urban areas, so it's recommended to regularly check the fluid to ensure good lubrication. The transmission design emphasizes durability, utilizing advanced materials to reduce wear. Daily maintenance is simple, requiring only a transmission oil change every 50,000 kilometers. Compared to other brands, such as Japanese CVT transmissions which are more fuel-efficient but lack sportiness, the Boyue's 7DCT strikes a balance between sportiness and comfort.
