What Transmission Does the Geely Emgrand Equip?
2 Answers
Geely Emgrand is equipped with two types of transmissions: a 5-speed manual transmission (MT) and a continuously variable transmission (CVT). The Geely Emgrand is a compact car with body dimensions of 4632mm in length, 1789mm in width, and 1470mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2650mm. In terms of power, the car is equipped with a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum power of 80kW and a maximum torque of 142Nm. It features an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block, with multi-point fuel injection. The front suspension of the Geely Emgrand is a MacPherson strut independent suspension, while the rear suspension is a torsion beam non-independent suspension.
I've driven several models of the Geely Emgrand, and now let's talk about its transmission options. The car typically comes with either a manual transmission or an automatic transmission, with the latter mainly being a continuously variable transmission (CVT). The CVT's characteristic is the absence of traditional gears, achieving seamless acceleration through a steel belt drive, making the ride exceptionally smooth, especially in city traffic where there's no frequent gear-shifting jerk. For my daily commute, the CVT-equipped Geely Emgrand is particularly fuel-efficient, with slightly lower fuel consumption per 100 kilometers than the manual version. It also excels in noise control and has relatively simple maintenance, requiring only a transmission fluid change every 20,000 kilometers. However, it's important to avoid aggressive driving to prevent premature wear on the steel belt. Overall, the Emgrand's CVT is well-designed and suits the needs of most family car users.
