1 Answers
Cars equipped with ZF 8AT include: Haval H8, Changan CS85-COUPE, Brilliance BMW 3 Series, Audi A8L, Audi Q5, Chrysler 300C, etc. The popularity of ZF 8AT among Chinese brands is largely due to its outstanding performance. Here are specific details about the ZF 8AT: 1. The ZF 8AT not only significantly reduces energy loss in the drivetrain but also meets the demands for lightweight, compact design, and energy efficiency. Traditional 6-speed automatic transmissions emit 186g of carbon emissions per kilometer, while the 8-speed transmission reduces this to 152g per kilometer, making it highly attractive to automakers. 2. The ZF 8AT is a longitudinal transmission, not a transverse one. Currently, most self-owned brand cars on the market feature a transverse engine and transmission design, which maximizes rear passenger space. In contrast, longitudinal transmissions are primarily used in rear-wheel-drive or all-wheel-drive vehicles, enabling balanced chassis weight distribution and significantly enhancing handling performance.
