A Continuously Variable Transmission is an automatic that can select any desired drive ratio within its operating range. Unlike a traditional three-, four-, or fivespeed automatic transmission the CVT is an "infinite speed" transmission, the CVT continually selects an optimum overall drive ratio between engine and drive wheels for all operating conditions, whether accelerating or cruising. Unlike conventional automatics, there are no perceptible shifts. During maximum acceleration, the drive ratio Is adjusted to maintain peak engine horsepower. At a constant vehicle speed, the ratio is set to maintain an engine rpm which will support the required power. A CVT provides smooth, fast acceleration and high cruising efficiency with the convenience of an automatic transmission.
