What transmission does the Teana use?
1 Answers
Teana's 2.0T engine is paired with an XTRONIC-CVT transmission. The CVT transmission offers excellent smoothness, aligning well with Teana's family-oriented positioning. The XTRONIC-CVT intelligent continuously variable transmission boasts a gear ratio range of 8.7:1. Such a high ratio range allows the engine to maintain operation within the economical RPM range. CVT stands for Continuously Variable Transmission. As the name suggests, it doesn't have specific gear positions. While it operates similarly to an automatic transmission, the variation in gear ratios differs from the gear-shifting process of automatic transmissions. Instead, it's continuous, ensuring consistent and smooth power delivery. Advantages of CVT transmission: Fuel efficiency: CVT can achieve stepless speed variation across a wide range, optimizing the match between the transmission system and engine conditions, thereby improving overall fuel economy. Typically, CVT is 5-8% more fuel-efficient than manual transmissions and 10-15% more efficient than automatic transmissions. Smooth driving experience: With continuous ratio changes, CVT provides very smooth acceleration and deceleration, making driving simpler and safer while offering comprehensive driving pleasure. Better emissions: CVT's wide working range of gear ratios enables the engine to operate under optimal conditions, improving combustion and reducing exhaust emissions. CVT emits about 10% less than AT and 5% less than MT, making it more environmentally friendly.
