Youngster, youngster. Once you're get a bit older and used to gearless CVT drive, any other type of tranny you'll feel very rough.
Although with CVT you might not get the kick at lower RPM acceleration, once it hit the mid to high range, it will be other way around, auto tranny (at least our 4 speed wan) will scream like there's no tomorrow and yet accelerate like a turtle while CVT makes little noise but accelerate like a jet albeit minus the suddent g force pullback..which one will give more kick for a high-speeder....go figure.
Years ago, I sat in an Audi with CVT tranny....believe me, no kick my ass...its all abt the what type of vehicle the tranny is mated with along with what horse powers that comes with it.
cannot compare lah. its an audi. ppl are always comparing proton with all those expensive car. lets say proton do use their money to produce those quality product. quality, performance, handling everything better than audi. price same as audi. which will people buy?? answer is the audi.

I still prefer manual..

Just try a bit longer.. U'll see..
Yea Inspira also like that.. CC5 quite nice.. Comfortable..
It's smooth, yes.. And the advantage is at mid to high speed.. U wanna get to the top speed quick, CVT is the way to go..
Yet if u realise, many of those racer-wannabes mod their cars for acceleration, not top speed.. It's always about how quick u get from 0 - 100, not about how high is ur top speed.. Try to think about it.. How often do u get to run at top speed? And even if u do get the chance to speed, do u have the balls to do it?

Yes, I would love to get CVT in a car, but only if it's a luxury car where comfort is concerned.. CVT is not for everyone. Some prefer the old stickshifting (like me) where u feel more connected and play a part in moving the car..
The proper way to describe it would be that the CVT changes ratio instead of gear as u accelerate..
hmm...hahahaha~~we will see wat i get when i change the tyre.
yup. acceleration is much more important than top speed.
