Where does the Xingyue L's 8AT transmission come from?

Xingyue L uses Aisin's 8AT transmission. Below are relevant details about Xingyue L: Powertrain: The Geely Xingyue L is equipped with three powertrain versions—2.0TD, MHEV, and PHEV—available in both two-wheel and four-wheel drive configurations. The new vehicle features a 2.0TD engine with a maximum power output of 238 horsepower. Exterior Design: Xingyue L adopts the "Dynamic Moment" design philosophy, building upon the "Time Rivalry Aesthetics" foundation. It draws inspiration from life and nature, capturing the most dynamic moments and integrating fluid visual characteristics into static forms. Xingyue is a sports SUV that achieves perfect balance, harmonizing the coupe-like roofline with practicality, as well as sporty handling with ride comfort.
I've been driving the Xingyue L, and its 8-speed automatic transmission is supplied by Japan's Aisin, specifically matched for Geely. It feels incredibly smooth to drive, with seamless gear shifts and no jerking. It's way more reliable than some domestic transmissions I've tried before. The power delivery is steady, and fuel consumption on the highway is well controlled, averaging around 7-8 liters per 100 kilometers. The source is clear and reliable—Aisin is a top-tier supplier in the automotive industry and has been collaborating with Geely for several years. Other brands like Toyota also use their products. I believe this transmission is one of the Xingyue L's strong points. When choosing a car, don’t just focus on the exterior; the transmission system is key. Regular oil changes can extend its lifespan.
