Continuously Variable Transmission (XB-20LN)

Just by Activating a Switch on Driver’s Side Enables the Toggling Between 2WD and 4WD Employs an electronic switching mechanism that improves ease of toggling and mountability Improved traveling performance with differential lock function

A Transfer Case that has Achieved a World-leading Level of Lightweight and Compact Size as well as High Performance (Full Motor Shift) High/Low and 2WD/4WD are easily selected by way of a motored switch operation. Shift lever operations required for conventional types are no longer necessary A lever-type synchronizing mechanism is applied to prevent noise. . .

The Ease of Automatic Shifting is Achieved with an Add-on System to an Existing Manual Transmission Design This is comprised of the addition of a conventional “Easy Mode” (E-Mode) function, which focuses on providing smooth shifts and “Sport Mode” (Es-Mode) which focuses more on shift responsiveness Both functions combine to meet fuel economy standards and. . .

Motor and generator are now more compact but produce greater output as a result of increased voltage and revolutions The introduction of reduction gears, which increase the range of torque the motor is able to draw on, produces greater drive power and enables seamless acceleration Incredible fuel efficiency has been achieved through optimal engine use. . .

Achieves both higher vehicle performance and fuel efficiency suitable for luxury vehicles Development of the layout where a two-stage motor speed reduction device is capable of selecting two reduction gear ratios, the high gear for high-speed range and the low gear for low-speed range, is combined with an output shaft of an electric motor Compact. . .

Achieves world class fuel efficiency, limiting fuel consumption of 26.5km/l through the use of flex-start control system, improved transmission efficiency and torque management Intensive CAE analysis of the casing design during development results in an extremely quiet running transmission

Installation comparable to conventional 4-speed AT Excellent shift response with low inertial torque converter 10% improved fuel consumption at high speed over 4-speed AT, due to improved hydraulic pressure controls and wider gear ratios
