No choice. Almost all sub 200HP petrol cars uses CVT just to pass new fuel economy rating and CO2 rating. If CO2 is to be 0% that means petrol cars of any kind are gone. The only reason why CVT is not used on cars above 200HP is reliability.

Subaru got CVT for higher performance rides (WRX, Levorg, Outback/Forester/Legacy XT), it depends on the manufacturer want or not to go all out.
Most just want to cut cost and go for the cheaper options.

FYI, CVT were banned in F1 and F1 engine is not small in hp also.

ALL CVT has to be pampered...not matter what brand and manufacturer

u abuse it, u can kiss your wallet goodbye

not even the almighty audi CVT should be abused based on workshop, it would still eventually break
and u also cannot mod your engine to have more power than the gearbox's tolerance rate

If you look at all the subaru models you posted, all the base egines is under 200HP. It is not about the brand. Once it breaches 200HP a full AT or MT transmission is used. It is just mechanical limitation of a design.

Problem with CVT is too shiok to drive, everyone will drive like cheesebuy.

If you drive like cheesebuy, all transmission will also tend to die prematurely.

If you dont know what is the limitation of each technology, even AT gearbox also can gone case. You see those gearbox got issue 1 try see how their owners drive & maintain their rides. My mechanic place got some owners even with Toyota Camry 4AT gearbox can drive until rosak, when ask how they drive most feedback they usually all pedal to metal everytime at traffic light or when traffic no other cars... sweat.gif

Yes, powerful and smooth, no gear shift jerk.

Too smooth that everyone will tend to press heavier on the accelerator.

My previous car using CVT for 12 years no problem until I sold it.

Only need to get used to the whirring sounds.

Now the only affordable car brand with conventional AT is Mazda.

CVT strength usually is on mid-range RPM, as it can varies the torque & gear ratio efficiently. If driven in a track/road with a lot of corners or with low or high ground (example: Hill roads), CVT would benefit a lot as no need to change gear often like normal AT gearbox.

What I don't understand is "to let owner feel like driving CVT" part. Why would manufacture let owners feel they're driving CV with the rubber band effect if it's not CVT?

The eCVT only for hybrid models, while normal Toyota ICE engine using D-CVT.
Toyota D-CVT also consider very advance in CVT technology as combine both gear & belt also.
If not mistaken Perodua/Daihatsu also using similar D-CVT technology but different activation mode.

hill road with 4 at usually u kena ..1st gear too powerful but cannot go fast ; shift to 2nd then underpower cannot push have to move down to 1st gear again

CVT patch the gap by having 1.5 gear* with more power loss than 4AT

DCVT - primary used by some low/mid end of toyota/perodua and daihatsu model (front end pure cvt ; last ratio is physical gear)

Toyota direct shift (like new harrier, latest voxy - basically model that used dynamic force engine + cvt) - launch/first with actual gear ; 2nd gear till end is belt

Many said Honda cvt is better than Toyota as it emphasized on belt quality to withstand tons of pressure.

Lastime Honda only use highly durable belt strictly made by Bosch, now not sure maybe cut corner already…

i cannot find the video but earlier there are 1 workshop at selangor that expert in rebuild cvt gearbox

so far the honda belt is weakest compared to other like toyota ..

most bagus/strong belt/chain is from Audi (yes ..certain model like audi a4 1.8 used cvt)

The eCVT only for hybrid models, while normal Toyota ICE engine using D-CVT.
Toyota D-CVT also consider very advance in CVT technology as combine both gear & belt also.
If not mistaken Perodua/Daihatsu also using similar D-CVT technology but different activation mode.
*
Some say Toyota use 7 speed Cvt the mechanism inside is reverse dcvt
7 speed use manual gear 0-60km then 60 kmabove use Cvt
Dcvt 0-60km use Cvt above 60km use manual gear

not really

imho

punch cvt used clutch or direct connect which suppose to have lesser power loss compared to using torque converter

but the bad part of using direct connect is the start stop jerk during crawling traffic


newer punch cvt (post exora) generally quite reliable other than stupid start stop jerk

but of course the chain will still putus when you reach particular mileage

when honda CVT belt snap, the belt they try to replaced back is using the 1.5L civic CVT belt and not use back the original

Perodua dcvt only up to 150Nm, highest rating engine is 138Nm, as long as drive normally should not be issue.
So better don't mod engine and push the transmission as it is on its limit.

Toyota eCVT more reliable than auto and manual

There is no clutch

Just planetary gear with the electric motor varying the gear ratio or receiving power or sending power in association with the engine

Edit:
Regular CVT is worse than auto.
The chain or rubber itself can fail

Let me break them down.
e-CVT = Very reliable, used in hybrid cars - Mechanically not the same as CVT,
CVT = If use chain like the Subaru WRX, then ok, If use belt, then not so good.
Conventional AT = Reliable - Like Mazda, Camry, Accord, Pick-up trucks, and some BMWs.
D-CVT = similar to CVT, although better than CVT, but still inferior to AT/eCVT.
DCT = Quite reliable - Used mainly by continental cars and some protons.

Conclusion: If you are kaki lenjan, don't buy CVT or D-CVT, the rest should be ok.
If you are a normal driver, then shouldn't matter.

I personally prefer Conventional AT. Fun and reliable.

you kaki tekan kaw-kaw during traffic light stops of course la cvt belt will break faster than ever, even if you replace the cvt gb oil closely to schedule.

press accelerator pedal slowly, gradually increase speed. After reaching like 50 or 60km/h, then can kasi tekan.

my 2017 Honda BRV clocked in 150,000km still okay, except the stupid driveshaft leak. this one very common for BRV from 2017 to 2019 batches. doh.gif

its a previous gen HRV. And that normal, many more HRV owner had claim the GB under warranty if follow the fb group. Mine kene right after warranty ended, 5 years 6 months iirc.
Driveshaft BRV? Normal also, mine 4 times claimed it under warranty for Accord, 1 time after warranty outside workshop. Surprisingly the workshop source driveshaft tahan longer than SC, no idea where he got that. Last time always had oil/grease leaked at the floor, always give me heartbeat thought engine/gb leaked

Coz Subaru is one of the pioneer in CVT manufacturing & mass production in Japan. If you dont know Subaru CVT you should learn the history.
Most Subaru CVT are made for AWD or FWD.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuously_...le_transmission

In 1987, the ECVT, the first electronically controlled steel-belted CVT, was introduced as an optional transmission on the Subaru Justy,[38][39] Production was limited to 500 units per month due to Van Doorne's limited production output. In June of that year, supplies increased to 3,000 per month, leading Subaru to make the CVT available in the Rex kei car.[40] Subaru has also supplied its CVTs to other manufacturers (e.g., the 1992 Nissan Micra and Fiat Uno and Panda).

BRZ is RWD, since Subaru only 1 model with RWD and it is consider a niche model for them, business sense is to use something which is more common & Toyota got a lot of RWD options. Besides from business point of view, the engine characteristic also you need to consider as the FA20/FA24 of the BRZ/GT-GR86 is more toward high revving (Just see the power band you will understood, especially torque curve) engine and CVT usually are not suitable for it.

It's fine as long you are using as it is intended. These cars are designed for city and cruising use, this is also mean that their CVT is also designed for comfort and fuel efficiency. If use it like track car, it won't last.

If only Subaru uses it, kind of sus isn't it? You can argue that no other car manufacture has 200HP engines that are not marketed as performance versions. The weird thing is Subaru isn't selling a lot of these anyway. And the new BRZ is not even equipped with CVT as option. You can say Toyota doesn't want it. And almost no European cars are flaunting CVT transmission anyways. Only the Japanese are using it to meet emission standards. So it is a weird place for Subaru. As weird as their design choice for their performance version cars anyway.  rolleyes.gif

summary, they just cheapskate for spec by Japanese.

Inspira CVT at 300K still going strong and not exactly a gentle driver

This is the original CVT design with no simulated gear shift, it actually feels quite similar to driving an electric car without the instant torque laugh.gif

The trick is proper maintenance and using the right genuine oil

It still came from same Aisin factory, the internal same concept combination of gear & belt.
The difference is the gear activation between Toyota & Daihatsu/Perodua, one is during launch/pick-up, while another is higher rpm/cruising.

Just planetary gear with the electric motor varying the gear ratio or receiving power or sending power in association with the engine

Edit:
Regular CVT is worse than auto.
The chain or rubber itself can fail

Let me break them down.
DCT = Quite reliable - Used mainly by continental cars and some protons.

Conclusion: If you are kaki lenjan, don't buy CVT or D-CVT, the rest should be ok.
If you are a normal driver, then shouldn't matter.

I personally prefer Conventional AT. Fun and reliable.
*
DCT - Dual Clutch -> Need to know if it is wet or dry clutch. If dry clutch like previous batch VW also can die due to wear & tear maintenance. Besides that the Mechatronic inside also is a thing which can fail in long term and those parts are not cheap to fix when time reach.

I have been using CVT in 3 cars (vios-crv-alphard) since 2012. I don't get the hate and doubt. It has never given me problems and never breaks down with proper on-schedule maintenance. The one often giving me the problem is my noncvt Peugeot 408

No choice. Almost all sub 200HP petrol cars uses CVT just to pass new fuel economy rating and CO2 rating. If CO2 is to be 0% that means petrol cars of any kind are gone. The only reason why CVT is not used on cars above 200HP is reliability.

That doesn't mean CVT is not reliable on cars below 200hp. It just mean most are not designed to handle that amount of hp.

Subaru Levorg uses CVT and that car has 250hp.

To protect cvt, just don't drive like you stole it

owai...


Serious note, in the correct way to use cvt is when traffic lights turn green, let off the brake and let the car inch forwward automatically by 1-2 sec then only step the throttle lightly then move.. Don't pedal to the floor/high rev it when it's on stand still.

well, buy a car with CVT with 190hp, 182hp but need to drive sedately even with proper maintenance. kinda waste for the hp.

CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) offers several advantages over conventional automatic transmissions (like those with gears, such as traditional torque converter automatics or dual-clutch transmissions). Here are the key benefits:

1. **Smoother Acceleration**: Since a CVT doesn't have fixed gear ratios, it can smoothly adjust the engine speed to the optimal level without the "shift points" you'd feel in a conventional automatic transmission. This results in a smoother and more seamless driving experience, especially during acceleration.

2. **Improved Fuel Efficiency**: A CVT allows the engine to operate at its most efficient RPM (revolutions per minute) for different driving conditions. This can lead to better fuel efficiency compared to conventional automatic transmissions, which may not always keep the engine in its optimal range.

3. **Lighter and More Compact**: CVTs generally have fewer parts and are more compact and lighter than conventional automatic transmissions. This reduces the overall weight of the vehicle and can contribute to improved fuel economy.

4. **Better Engine Performance**: A CVT can keep the engine at its ideal power band, allowing the car to accelerate more efficiently. Unlike conventional automatics, which shift through predefined gears, the CVT adjusts continuously, often resulting in a more responsive driving experience.

5. **Less Mechanical Complexity**: While not necessarily simpler in all respects, the CVT has fewer mechanical components that directly engage with each other (e.g., no traditional "gears" shifting). This can translate into reduced mechanical wear over time, potentially increasing the longevity of the transmission when properly maintained.

However, CVTs aren't without their drawbacks, such as a sometimes less engaging driving experience or potential for increased engine noise under hard acceleration. But in terms of efficiency, smoothness, and ease of driving, CVTs have a clear edge over conventional automatics in many situations.

I see many people say "use CVT for so long and no problem oso".

Yes, of course no problem if you drive like an aunty/uncle (except that Youtube Genting Uncle).

You can go very fast and your CVT will be fine, as long as you don't accelerate hard because that will put a lot of stress on that tiny belt.

Conclusion: For CVT, accelerate gradually.

if this, the manufacturer should put CVT for car that had 100hp or below. Above 100hp, please make a proper "gear" GB, not belt. inb4 Japanese manufacturers just cheapskate and combo all their car model with a single model of CVT or even engine throughout their model. Hat off to China car maker who put DCT wet clutch on all their car nowadays, and their more Premium model (if watch their Car review), getting 8-10 Auto Torque Converters from a reputable brand, where usually using 2.0T 4 cylinders engine for premium model

Past experience for HRV, no cvt light pop up but when the car is still under warranty, 4 years plus, about 100k km, got kinda juddering at a certain speed, 40kmh-60kmh, start-stop traffic. So sent SC, and they tested it for few hours, and informed to change the CVT fluid (pay not warranty), but the problem persists. So went on to other SC, all told norm, even though the other HRV test drive unit did not have that juddering. They put remarks, customer complaint GB judder at a certain speed but no abnormal signal pop up, hence case was closed. Hitting 125k km, all of a sudden put D, car cant drive, light pop up. Send to GB shop, confirmed the belt already burst inside.

I think it depends on the rev rather than speed.

When driving at 90-100kmh can see the rev drop from 2500 to slightly over 2000 rpm after i ease off the pedal.

Above 140kmh can't recreate the drop hence suspect it stays at CVT mode 😅

Being thrashing the DCVT past 3 years, I must say it is pretty reliable so far. Will feedback again in 2027.

My previous estima 450K ++ km no issue at all. Just change oil every 40,000km and don't act like driving Ferrari when moving from standstill. Car was 15 years old when I sold it.

My wife current car honda city already 11 years old and no issue with cvt. Again, drive like civilized person when moving from standstill. Also change oil every 40,000km.

FYI, toyata cvt belt also much more solid and thicker than Honda's.

I think it depends on the rev rather than speed.

When driving at 90-100kmh can see the rev drop from 2500 to slightly over 2000 rpm after i ease off the pedal.

Above 140kmh can't recreate the drop hence suspect it stays at CVT mode 😅

Being thrashing the DCVT past 3 years, I must say it is pretty reliable so far. Will feedback again in 2027.

Ahhh that make sense. I can never tell as the car that I drove was the model that had no Tachometer.

Huh?

Which Axia / Ativa car with DCVT you drove has no tachometer?
