Emgrand GL 1.4 uses the Getrag 6DCT transmission. Introduction to the Getrag 6DCT transmission: This transmission is jointly developed by the world-leading transmission R&D and manufacturing company Getrag from Germany and LUK. It has undergone rigorous testing on 66 prototype vehicles, accumulating 14.58 million kilometers of testing. This includes various extreme condition tests such as high-temperature testing at 40°C, extreme cold testing at -35°C, and high-altitude testing at 4800m, ensuring full quality assurance. 6DCT transmission fuel consumption: The 6DCT150 transmission has a fuel consumption of only 6.9L/100KM, which is even more fuel-efficient than manual transmissions. The torque parameter of a transmission is not like that of an engine where bigger is better; instead, it depends on the matching with the engine. Many transmissions have a wide applicable torque range, reaching up to 250Nm, but the engine may not be able to output that much power.

I've checked out the Geely Emgrand GL with the 1.4L version, which comes paired with a CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission). Unlike traditional automatic transmissions that shift gears, it uses belts and pulleys to smoothly transfer power. I've driven this car several times, and there's absolutely no jerking sensation in city traffic jams—the acceleration is incredibly smooth. The CVT design is simple yet efficient, helping Geely reduce fuel consumption to an average of 6-7L per 100km, which is great for household economy. However, it does have drawbacks, such as less aggressive power output on uphill climbs compared to dual-clutch transmissions, and faster wear if frequently used for off-roading. I recommend fellow car owners to regularly check the transmission fluid, typically changing it every 20,000 kilometers to avoid belt aging issues. Overall, the CVT is well-suited for urban commuting—it's worry-free, fuel-efficient, and a reliable matching choice that aligns with the needs of the car's younger user base.

What are the gears of the Passat automatic transmission?

Volkswagen Passat automatic transmission models have gears P, N, R, D/S. Volkswagen Passat new energy automatic transmission models have gears P, N, R, D/B. D is the forward gear, S is the sport gear, N is the neutral gear, R is the reverse gear, and P is the parking gear. The following is a related introduction to car gears: 1. P parking gear: When the car is parked, the gear lever must be moved to the P position. 2. R reverse gear: Used when the car is reversing. 3. N neutral gear: The N position is equivalent to neutral and can be used when starting, parking without leaving the car, or when towing. 4. D forward gear: When driving normally, place the gear lever in the D position, and the car can automatically shift between forward gears. The D gear is the most commonly used gear. 5. S gear: The car's sport mode ("S" is the abbreviation of "Sport"). In S gear sport mode, the transmission can shift freely.

Is the fuel consumption high for a newly purchased car?

Fuel consumption is typically high for a newly purchased car. Here are some precautions for new car owners during the initial usage period: 1. Avoid excessively high engine RPM: Generally, keep the RPM below 3000, and for automatic transmissions, below 3500. 2. Do not maintain a single gear for extended periods: All vehicles experience greater actual load at low speeds compared to medium speeds, so during the break-in period, avoid prolonged operation below 60 km/h. Gradually increase the speed. Additionally, if the break-in is completed at a constant 80 km/h and the speed is suddenly increased afterward, the new car may not adapt well. Therefore, progressively raise the maximum speed during the break-in period. Maintain a steady speed during the break-in, ensuring stable operation at levels like 30 km/h, 60 km/h, 80 km/h, and 100 km/h. 3. Avoid driving with excessive load: The lighter the car during the break-in period, the better, as heavy loads can cause damage to the vehicle.
