What transmission does the Geely Emgrand use?
2 Answers
Geely Emgrand uses two types of transmissions in total, one is a 5-speed manual transmission, and the other is a CVT transmission. Here is some information about the CVT transmission: 1. The structure of the CVT transmission is very simple. This transmission only has two cone wheels and a steel belt. The steel belt of this transmission can move on the cone wheels, allowing the transmission to change speed and torque. The CVT transmission has good reliability and durability, and its shifting smoothness is also excellent. During the shifting process, the CVT transmission hardly has any jerking. 2. The disadvantage of the CVT transmission is that it cannot be used with high-power engines. The torque that this transmission can withstand is relatively small. If used with high-power engines, the steel belt of the CVT transmission may slip.
I've been driving a Geely Emgrand with a CVT automatic transmission for several years. It provides a very smooth ride without any gear shift jerks. It's particularly worry-free in city traffic - just step on the accelerator and go, with fuel consumption around 7-8 liters per 100km, making it economical. The manual version comes with a 5-speed transmission. A friend has the entry-level model, which has good shift feel but is tiring to drive in the city. The Emgrand's transmission is paired with a 1.5L engine, providing adequate power for daily commuting and occasional long-distance hill climbs. Regular maintenance is important - I change the transmission fluid every 2 years to maintain stable performance. Geely has done reliable work on transmission calibration, with few malfunctions. It offers great value for money and suits beginners well. When purchasing, I also researched the warranty policy - the automatic transmission comes with a 3-year warranty, giving me full confidence in driving it.
