CVT Gearbox Toyota

A lot of people think that the fail point of CVTs is the belt, or the mechanics, but in reality its cooling. A single moving system has to endure all of the heat stress of the drive alone, and early examples struggled to properly managed it. Most CVTs like from Nissan fixed the issue with additional transmission coolers and revised shifting programming, extending the life of the units to be on par with contemporary geared transmissions.

Gents and ladies, this is not a Toyota CVT... God I hate misinformation... That's a common belt CVT, yes in some cars, mostly scooters, go karts, quads and so on. Toyota engineered a cvt drive with a planetary gear. Used since the first Prius. Originally patented by honda I think. Very interesting, a little complex to fully understand, but simple in principle, such a beautiful thing. Hybrid synergy drive. You're welcome. PS: CVT stands for continuous variable transmission. So it's able to change gear ratios continuously instead of discrete steps like a usual gearbox like a manual Shifter, or most of automatics as well. Cvt is another form of an automatic transmission.

The video operator managed to miss the most precious moment. Great job

Hyper CVT! There's another variation of these cvts used by Nissan called CVT Extroid. Extroid has no steel belt but uses hydraulic actuated pulleys, but it has it problems also.

I think there’s a hole in your gearbox

I’ve got a RAV4 with CVT, as a retired TQ n my mechanic- am very impressed 👍

[generator]

I still think that belt needs to be a lot beefier!

I feel sorry for Nissan there's not many Nissan cars where I'm at and a lot of people go to other dealers except Nissan in the next 10 years they going to go back to automatic transmission just like General Motors decided to put diesels in their cars in 1978 in 1985 they went back to gas this will happen the same way with Nissan

I actually like the concept of the CVT transmission. It's just the reliability issues that I don't like.

[steff]

Scooters have thos transmission as well. I love it. It's seamless

[tonymarc]

They need to show the part more, how it actually works.

It would be such a cool idea for him to stream himself gaming. Would anyone else watch that?

[davewebster]

Toyota hybrids do not use belts, they use 2 motors

Snowmobiles have been using it for years...lol. I bought a dodge caliber that I didn't know about the cvt at the time. Big mistake, I didn't mind the car but not a fan of the cvt at all. I need to feel the transmission shifting. I would have bought the manual if I could do it over. Well I don't think I would have bought a caliber period if I could do it over 😂

Had no idea Ryobi made CVT's! Where does the 18v battery slot in though?

[santiagocometto]

these gearboxes may not be the quickest ones (like dual clutch ones) but they’re pretty trustablex, like every japanese-developed thing

The design is brilliant, and nothing compares as far as MPG's concerned. Now we need aftermarket vendors like GearStar and Tremic to get to work improving the design like they have done for other designs and beef up the weaknesses like the torque handling characteristics. Because like CVT or not, the advantages far outweigh the drawbacks and their the wave of the future. 😊

Does cvt belt move by pneumatics or is that just for the demonstration and otherwise it’s hydraulically controlled?

the CVT gear on corolla is faster than most other CVT on other cars from the same generations, specially from the first to second. my corolla is 2.0 and i have been driving it for 2 years the car still surprises me how fast when you kick down from first to second
