What transmission does the Jaguar F-Type use?
1 Answers
The Jaguar F-Type is equipped with an 8-speed automatic transmission (8AT) across all models. The AT transmission offers excellent shift smoothness, making this sports car ideal for daily driving. Below are some key details about the Jaguar F-Type: 1. Engine Options: The Jaguar F-Type comes with four engine options: a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, a low-power 3.0-liter supercharged engine, a high-power 3.0-liter supercharged engine, and a 5.0-liter supercharged engine. 2. 5.0-liter Supercharged Engine: The Jaguar F-Type produces an impressive exhaust note, especially in the SVR high-performance version, which features the 5.0-liter supercharged engine. The AT transmission is the most mature and widely used transmission technology. It connects to the engine via a torque converter and utilizes planetary gears for gear shifting and torque conversion. 3. Shift Smoothness: The AT transmission provides smoother shifts compared to dual-clutch transmissions (DCT) and also offers better reliability and durability. While the shift speed of an AT transmission is not as fast as a DCT, high-performance AT transmissions can match the shift speed of dual-clutch transmissions.
