What transmission does the Haoying use?
2 Answers
The Haoying uses a CVT transmission and a 6-speed manual transmission. The transmission mainly refers to the car's gearbox, which is divided into manual and automatic types. The manual transmission is mainly composed of gears and shafts, generating speed and torque changes through different gear combinations. The automatic transmission (AT) consists of a torque converter, planetary gears, a hydraulic torque variation system, and a hydraulic control system. The Haoying is a compact SUV with dimensions of 4634mm in length, 1855mm in width, and 1679mm in height, a wheelbase of 2661mm, and a body weight of 1520kg. This vehicle is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 193PS and a maximum torque of 243Nm.
I've checked online that the Honda Haoying uses a continuously variable transmission, commonly known as CVT. It drives exceptionally smoothly, almost like gliding, without any noticeable gear shift jerks. This CVT from Honda is part of the Earth Dreams technology, designed to be very compact and paired with either a 1.5T or 2.0-liter hybrid engine, primarily to enhance fuel efficiency—it saves a lot of gas in city driving. I also noticed it uses a steel belt drive, which is much simpler than traditional automatic transmissions and doesn't require frequent oil changes during maintenance. If you often drive long distances, this transmission automatically adjusts the RPM to keep the engine in its most efficient range, making driving effortless and stress-free. Overall, it's quite suitable for family cars, with low noise levels, making long drives less tiring.
