What type of transmission does the Honda CR-V have?
1 Answers
Honda CR-V currently available models are equipped with two types of transmissions: a 6-speed manual transmission and a CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission). More details are as follows: 1. The continuously variable transmission is a type of automatic transmission that can continuously obtain any transmission ratio within the range. It achieves the best match between the transmission system and the engine conditions. The biggest difference between this transmission and a conventional automatic transmission is that it eliminates the complex and bulky gear combination transmission, using only two sets of pulleys for transmission. By changing the contact radius of the drive belt between the driving pulley and the driven pulley, it achieves variable speed, with a very clever design concept. 2. The manual transmission, also known as a mechanical gearbox, requires the driver to manually shift the gear lever (commonly known as the 'gear stick') to change the gear engagement position inside the transmission, altering the gear ratio to achieve speed changes. It has a simple structure, reliable performance, low manufacturing and maintenance costs, and high transmission efficiency. Additionally, because it is purely mechanically controlled, it offers faster shift response and can more directly reflect the driver's intentions, providing a more engaging driving experience. These are the advantages of a manual transmission.
