The other day they took off, trying to do a burnout, and the smokers standing there waiting for the next shift to start started talking bout it and I was like "You think that's cool? You think that's fast?" Well I got in my car and I really took off out of the parking lot and I looked back in the rearview and their jaws were floored. Needless to say, don't rice your car, put real power under the hood.

    The CVT in hybrid toyota is different from CVT in gas toyotas. The hybrid one is planetary gears (power split device) called eCVT. The other one is two cones and they are just like you said they do slip. The solution to that it has a dedicated discreet gear called launch gear.

    • @cc-tb3st
      @cc-tb3st Před 5 měsíci +1

      Nobody knows this. Everyone thinks the hybrid ecvt is a belt. No belt at all, it's actually a differential. Toyota does things and names things for marketing for the lowest common denominator customer. For example, using a gas engine instead of diesel on Prius, a car designed for fuel mileage. Diesel would be so much better but the average consumer wouldn't buy it because they aren't familiar with diesel. Or the artificial drag Toyota put when you release the gas to imitate the drag of a normal car. Even though that drag is being turned into energy stored in the battery for use later, it's still more efficient to conserve momentum and not artificially slow the car.
      I love my Prius, but I would love it even more if it was diesel and didn't have the artificial drag. I also wish the diesel was a generator and didn't actually drive the wheels. It just put energy in the battery and electric motors actually did all the work. Exactly like the new Edison semi.

Went through a lot of research on this and it all pointed to Toyota doing things right. So, I got the one with CVT. This thing is a dream! 5 years ago it would have been considered a luxury car.

    I have a 2023 Corolla (non-hybrid) with this transmission. So far, so good, and it whines like an old conventional auto transmission when floored, BUT where the conventional transmission takes time to engage, this one is making my car accelerate the whole time. In addition, when I drive like a normal person, I'm getting 40mpg. Hopefully I will feel the same way in 5 years.

    Best vehicle I ever owned was a 1988 Toyota 4Runner. It had a 4 cyl 22RE motor, small lift with huge tires (like that when I bought it), and a 5 speed transmission. Before going to college, I gave it to my dad because I wanted something smaller for the travelling. It had 300k miles on it. He drove it for years, putting another 300k miles on it. The body rusted in half, and a guy bought the motor to put in his truck, and is still driving it today. Never had an issue with that little motor.

      The CVT fluid isnt being spoiled from actuating motion from the pumps,
      *The fluid is getting spoiled from high engine heat*
      Modern day cars deliberatly run 180+ degrees fahrenheit as a homeostatic temperature to clean the emissions at the cost of engine power.
      Epicyclic transmissions are designed to handle high heat,
      in fact they can run their best in high heat,
      Because epicyclic transmissions use a mix heavy petroleum/mineral oil thats meant to control friction rather than lubricating metal as priority
      CVTs on the other hand use a mineral oil thats more relatable to dot3-4 brake fluid than ATF.
      The CVT fluid is designed to be more of a lubricant than a friction modifier,
      In truth
      CVT fluids dont like high heat,
      this is has been the true crux of why CVTs been failing before 50K miles.
      The poor CVT has to deal with the heat of it needing to actuate it's pumps while being to attatched to a lava-hot ICE
      The fluid can be poured in red or clear grey, and then after 40K miles
      it could be drained out motor oil black.
      CVT fluids are freakin' weaksauce

    The biggest problem with American automotive companies is that they start at the bottom line profit and work everything in from there. The first thing they should do is make all engineers work on the assembly line and also make them listen to the production crew about problems or ideas. I worked in Research and Development with all type engineers/designers and were taught to keep our ears and eyes open for total input. An example is our operating manual was written by Tech Writers but tested by our secretaries who never touched the machine. So many little things were found that were left out or put in the wrong steps. Our production workers found steps to make it easier to install some of the modules.

    If companies built transmissions like a manual transmission and automatic transmission combined. With a hydraulic pressure pump and piston system instead of a clutch or torque, and computer controlled hydraulic solenoids that change gears by changing the locating and amount fluid pressure to hydraulic pistons between gears that change the gears.. That would be the ultimate automatic transmission!

    I see a parallel in the building industry: main companies using sub-contractors to finish a project in order to cut the cost of directly-employed staff. The 'subbies' and the transmissions from a different maker have less commitment to excellence because their name is not on the main product and they have no share in the profit (if there is one). Economists call this the casualisation of labour but Scotty with his poetic turn of phrase would probably call it 'a pile of crap'. He would be right.

And you also have different types of CVTs as well. the type they use on Toyota cars, uses a steel belt to transfer power between varying pulley. And a lot of tractors anymore, use a hydrostatic transmission; changes gears by varying the swept area on a piston pump. There was a bus, in the 1960s, that only had a single forward and reverse gear; however power was transferred straight through a torque converter. And of course my favorite example; every diesel locomotive, built since the 1950s, has used some form of generator to power traction motors; and they changed gears by simply altering the strength of the generators field coils.

      Rob Foley I drive both and they’re both good, reliability obviously Toyota but that doesn’t mean the Nissans will go out in 40k miles especially if you do the maintenance on time

    First batch of these new transmission already had a recall to replace the whole transmission. I wouldn't trust them quite yet!

    This is a great improvement in the CVT transmissions. FYI: Toyota debuted it in 2018

    When we went to Texas to see our son graduation from Air Force basic training, we were supposed to have another model rental car but they gave us a Corolla. I had an older one and it was a great car but boring. I couldn’t believe the acceleration and performance! The only drawback was the blind spot in the side view, but this thing drove like a sports car! It sipped gas too!

    I also bought a new Corolla - but with the 6spd “iMT“ Manual. Will you adopt me?

    CVT's have actually been around a long time! Leonardo da Vinci designed the first concept. Milton Reeves invented a CVT for his saw mill in 1879 and later in 1896 he applied to his first car. A CVT was used in the British Clyno car, introduced in 1923.

    the bulletproof CVT's are known as eCVT's, these are used in the famously reliable Prius lineup. Conventional CVT's remain to be known as crap.
