    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuously_variable...

    A continuously variable transmission (CVT) is an automated transmission that can change through a continuous range of gear ratios.This contrasts with other transmissions that provide a limited number of gear ratios in fixed steps.

  3. Automatic transmission - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_transmission

    A continuously variable transmission (CVT) can change seamlessly through a continuous (infinite) range of gear ratios, compared with other automatic transmissions that provide a limited number of gear ratios in fixed steps. The flexibility of a CVT with suitable control may allow the engine to operate at a constant angular velocity while the ...

    Honda's older transmissions such as the Hondamatic semi-automatic transmission and its successors use traditional, individual gears on parallel axes like a manual transmission, with each gear ratio engaged by a separate hydraulic clutch pack. This design is also noteworthy because it preserves engine braking by eliminating a sprag between first ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Continuously...

    Continuously variable transmissions are an automotive transmission fitted in a vehicle, using a continuously variable drive ratio or variator device. The typical "automatic gearbox" is not usually considered to be a continuously-variable transmission, as it relies on shifting between discrete gear ratios.

    The NuVinci CVT system has a small number of parts. [5] [6] Most CVTs have lower mechanical efficiency than competitive conventional transmissions.Since any CVT may allow a power plant, human or motorized, to operate at (or closer to) its speed of optimal efficiency, output torque or output power, the NuVinci CVT may improve a system's overall efficiency or performance compared to a ...
