Unlike automatic transmissions, which shift between different gears as you increase speed, the components of a CVT (a belt and two pulleys) are under constant strain. The ride is smoother than an ...

While traditional transmissions have a set of gears that are shifted through, a CVT uses two rubber or metal pulleys, ...

The automotive ones inevitably use a variation on a V-belt or metal band between variable separation conical pulleys, but this is by no means the only CVT configuration. Serial tinkerer [Robert ...

Description: belt life. Hilliard’s CVT system is designed to fit a wide variety of clutch envelopes so no expensive modifications are required for new vehicles or on replacements for vehicles ...

A CVT gearbox has a relatively simple arrangement of two cone-shaped pulleys with a V-shaped drive belt connecting them. One pulley is attached to the engine, while the other is joined to the wheels.

Honda is recalling over 143,000 examples of the 2014-2015 Civic and 2015 Fit to fix a problem that could lead to the CVT's drive pulley shaft breaking. When the two factors are combined over time ...

According to Automotive News, Japanese carmakers appear especially interested in adding CVTs to their lineups.Honda is widely expected to offer a CVT on its next-generation four-cylinder Accord ...

Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) uses pulleys or belts for gear shifting. The use of belts or pulleys instead of steel gears results in variable gear ratios dependent on engine speed or RPM.
