During operation of the vehicle, the CVT simultaneously adjusts the diameter of both pulleys and as one pulley increases in size, the other pulley decreases in size. The Drive Pulley is used to transmit energy from the engine through the belt which drives the Driven Pulley and delivers power to car’s wheels. In a car equipped with a CVT, there are typically two pulleys, 1 pulley connected to the engine (Drive Pulley) and the second pulley connected to the wheels (Driven Pulley).
What Is A CVT Transmission?Ī CVT is a type of automatic transmission which uses variable-width pulleys that are connected by a flexible steel belt rather than the planetary gears and torque converters used in many traditional automatic transmissions. This article will provide a brief overview of the CVT transmission as well as a comprehensive list of cars with the CVT transmission. Car enthusiasts typically harbor a certain disdain for them and often complain of their loud drone and lack of performance while supporters of the CVT often praise the fuel economy and smooth seamless acceleration. The Continuous Variable Transmission (CVT Transmission) has become a rather polarizing topic in auto discussions within the last decade.
