CVT SYSTEM


  1. OUTLINE


    1. A K114F Continuously Variable Transaxle (CVT) is used on AWD models with 3ZR-FAE engine.

    2. A coaxial 2 discharge port oil pump system is used.

    3. An electric CVT oil pump (oil pump with motor assembly) is provided to ensure adequate CVT oil pressure when the stop and start system is operating. For details, refer to IDLING STOP CONTROL.

    4. A CVT fluid warmer is used in the CVT fluid cooling system.

    5. A gate type shift lever is used.

    6. A 7-speed sport sequential shiftmatic system is used.

    7. A shift paddle is used on Middle or High grade.

    8. A shift pattern select system is used to select the driving mode (Normal and Sport). In Sport mode, a higher level of responsiveness and a linear acceleration feel have been achieved.
