I drive a hybrid with CVT. After getting used to its smoothness driving with a "normal gearbox" feels really awkward.

- kozak 9y agoElectronic e-CVT (that hybrids like the Prius have) and mechanic push-belt CVT (non-hybrid) are completely different things mechanically.
- IndrekR 9y agoHonda hybrids have mechanical CVT. Except the new Accord, which has no gearbox and uses electric drivetrain for slow speeds and direct engine coupling for highway.
- twothamendment 9y agoI have a CVT in a Subaru and they decided to make it feel like a "normal" car by pretending to shift. I wish I could disable that. At lower RPMs it doesn't play that game.
