The New Vision offers three types of transmissions: a 5-speed manual transmission, a 4-speed automatic manual transmission, and a CVT continuously variable transmission. The Vision is a compact sedan produced by Auto. In terms of body dimensions, it measures 4599mm in length, 1747mm in width, and 1482mm in height. Under the hood, the Geely Vision is equipped with a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine across the lineup, delivering a maximum horsepower of 109 HP, a maximum power output of 80 kW, and a peak torque of 142 Nm. It incorporates DVVT technology and features an aluminum alloy cylinder block and head, which reduces the vehicle's weight and further enhances fuel efficiency while maintaining performance.

I've been driving the New Vision for a while now, opting for the manual transmission version. The 5-speed manual shifts quite crisply, and every drive feels like an interaction with the car. The clutch has a moderate feel, making it easy for beginners to learn. It can be a bit hectic in the city at first, but once you get used to it, it becomes smooth and even saves a lot of fuel. I often take long trips, and the manual transmission performs stably on the highway, with an average fuel consumption of around 7L/100km. The transmission is easy to maintain; last year, changing the gear oil only cost a few hundred yuan. Compared to my friend's automatic car, this version is more economical and has a direct power response, making it especially suitable for those on a budget who value driving experience. Regular checks on the clutch plates and transmission oil are all it takes, with minor issues easily manageable on my own.

As an automotive enthusiast, I've tested different configurations of the New Vision. It primarily comes with either a CVT continuously variable transmission or a 5-speed manual transmission. The CVT version shows obvious advantages in smoothness, with fluid acceleration from a standstill and no jerking, making city driving very comfortable. The fuel efficiency is also decent, with a combined fuel consumption around 6.5 liters, slightly higher than the manual version. However, the CVT is prone to overheating during aggressive driving, so avoid continuous high-speed uphill climbs. The manual transmission is more durable, with clear gear shifts and a strong sense of control. Overall, the New Vision's transmission matching is decent, suitable for daily commuting. I recommend the manual for those who prefer sporty driving, while families should prioritize the CVT—both have reasonable costs in the long run.

When I first started learning to drive, I chose the manual transmission version of the New Vision. Its gearbox is simple and easy to use, with a light clutch pedal and clearly defined gear positions, making it less prone to stalling compared to older cars. I got the hang of it after just a week of practice, and now it's convenient for my daily commute in the city. The throttle response is quick, it has strong acceleration, and is more affordable. The manual transmission is robust, requiring only an annual service with low oil change costs. For beginners, the New Vision is a cost-effective choice with high value for money—the savings can be spent on more safety accessories. Compared to an automatic, the manual version helped me master driving skills faster, and I highly recommend it to friends just starting out.

Having worked in car repairs for many years, I've encountered quite a few owners of the New Vision. The transmissions are mostly manual or CVT types. For manual transmissions, the common wear point is on the clutch plates, and rough driving can accelerate damage, so it's recommended to press and release the clutch gently. For the CVT version, improper may lead to slipping noises, which can be avoided by timely transmission oil changes. The overall failure rate of the New Vision is not high, with few problems occurring within an average mileage of 100,000 kilometers. I advise owners to check the transmission system every 30,000 kilometers, including the oil level and filters. Manual transmissions are economical and durable, suitable for those on a tight budget; CVTs are easier to drive but slightly more expensive to maintain. When choosing a car, consider your daily usage habits and don't overlook the health of the transmission.

Using the New Vision CVT automatic transmission for school runs at home. The gearbox is smooth and reliable, eliminating the need for frequent gear shifts in traffic, making it worry-free. There's no jerking during acceleration, so kids don't get car sick. In terms of fuel consumption, it's slightly higher than the manual version, averaging 7.2L/100km, but the difference is minimal. It performs stably on long trips with consistent power response, and mudguards have been added to protect the transmission. is recommended every 40,000 km as per the manual to extend its lifespan. The New Vision CVT offers great value for money, with spacious interiors and strong practicality thanks to its transmission characteristics. As a daily family car, it balances comfort and economy, and choosing the automatic version saves time and effort.
