What transmission is used in the Rapid?
1 Answers
Rapid uses the MQ250 transmission from Aisin. Function of the transmission: The transmission is a mechanism used to change the speed and torque from the engine. It can fix or change the gear ratio between the output shaft and the input shaft in steps, also known as the gearbox. Changing the gear ratio meets the traction needs under different driving conditions, allowing the engine to operate as much as possible under favorable working conditions and meeting the possible driving speed requirements. It can change the speed of the car and the torque on the driving wheels over a wide range. Since driving conditions vary, the speed and driving torque of the car need to be able to change over a wide range. Classification of car transmissions: They are divided into manual and automatic types. Manual transmissions mainly consist of gears and shafts, achieving speed and torque changes through different gear combinations; while automatic transmissions (AT) consist of a torque converter, planetary gears, and a hydraulic control system, achieving speed and torque changes through hydraulic transmission and gear combinations.
