And how is it different from automatic? Also, do you have to switch beats manually or can you just drive normally like you would an automatic car?
In: Technology
CVT is one of the subcategories of an automatic transmission
By having two cones facing in opposite directions, you can have a belt connecting them and have a wider range of “gears” compared to traditional designs while having smoother driving experience, higher gear slides one way, while lower gear slides the other way
The downside is that they tend to be more delicate and less reliable than the others, such as with overheating, slipping, or loss of acceleration. They can also make driving less engaging to some people since they don’t have the distinct up and downshifts that a traditional transmission would have
