CVT SYSTEM


  1. OUTLINE


    1. A K114F Continuously Variable Transaxle (CVT) is used.

    2. A gate type shift lever is used.

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

    4. A shift paddle is provided on specified models

    5. 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.

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

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

    8. An electric oil pump is positioned parallel to the hydraulic circuit of the mechanical oil pump to ensure the oil pressure in order to achieve shock reduction and responsiveness when starting the engine from an idling stop. As a result, a smooth start off is made possible. For details, refer to 3ZR-FAE IDLING STOP CONTROL.
