Indeed, the Avanza and the New Xpander both use CVT, but the way it works is different


Special

The Toyota All New Avanza is officially launched for the Indonesian market.

Otomotifnet.com – The latest Toyota Avanza and Mitsubishi Xpander both use automatic transmission type CVT atau Continuously Variable Transmission.

However, even though they are both CVT types, the working system of the latest Xpander and Avanza automatic transmissions is different.

Because the latest Mitsubishi Xpander uses CVT transmission normal.

That is, its CVT transmission in shifting gears using pulleys and belts or steel belts only.

This steel belt connects two pulleys, namely the drive pulley and the driven pulley.

These two pulses can each move to the right or left.

So that the width of the two pulleys can change to narrow or widen.

The diameter of this belt is the gear ratio in the CVT transmission.

The latest Toyota Avanza and Toyota Veloz CVT transmissions do not only use pulleys and steel belts, but are also equipped with a series of additional gears and planetary gears.

“The CVT transmission used is a new type, namely Dual Mode CVT (D-CVT),” said Anton Jimmi Suwandy, Marketing Director of PT Toyota-Astra Motor (TAM).

This system of auxiliary and planetary gears is called the “split-gears system”.

The steel belt and split-gear system work alternately in delivering power.

That’s why this transmission is called Toyota “Dual Mode CVT” (D-CVT) or if it is freely translated it means “CVT transmission in two ways”.

In the first mode, the D-CVT is like a conventional CVT transmission.
