Battle of the Transmissions: M/T vs. A/T

[17Sphynx17]

You don't need more than 150 hp to enjoy a CVT on mountain roads. Fast car slow driver will always get beaten by slow car fast driver.

That is true.

With my Jatco CVT equipped car, I don't want to gamble it suddenly conking out on me. Nung inakyat ko sa Mt Samat, masaya naman... pero pagdating ko taas... di ko malaman kung sino nangangamoy sunug na clutch sa dami ng kotse last year. haha! Kaya pababa medyo alalay na lang ako para sigurado.

Haven't driven the newer Honda's with their Aisin CVT

nung nag baguio din kami minsan, yung mga vios medyo hirap umahon sa tirik... tendency ng driver mag slide clutch talaga lalo na kung mga newbie.. unlike yung malaki engine displacement at diesel engine, hindi hirap sa ganyan, kahit low rev nakaka ahon.. yung small displacement, need ng more revs para sa torque

Kung turbocharged yung small displacement gas engine, no issues sa torque delivery at mga akyatan. Yung Fiesta 1.0L Ecoboost engine produces about the same amount of torque at high revs as a 2.0L NA gas engine.

Honda makes their own cvts. They use zf on their bigger vehicles.

I went over the article too. Their vios at needs servicing. Mukhang they didn't change the fluid enough. My 6sp at is close to half mil and its holding up pretty well.

i don't know.
it seems like they're giving the vios mt too many sakits that it does not really have.
pms to the core, talaga.
"we will replace your parts even if it still looks like it is in very good condition, so that it will not brake down on you."
heh heh.

For longevity, MT. It will outlast the car. Yung AT, designed to last same as the car or less. If you plan to sell the car after x years, choose AT. If you want to keep it forever, MT. My Altis MT at 150k and 14 years without any transmission parts replaced. Minsan nasa pag gamit din. I grew up driving MT. 3 speed pa noon. Shifted to AT for comfort. Iba kasi yung feeling upon arrival at destination using MT and AT..
