Small Engine (AT) vs Big Engine (CVT)

[istan]

Stop and go traffic, smaller engine has better Fc, irregardless of transmission. Highway driving, big engine + cvt is way better.

Hehe, single speed so primera lang siya lagi?

6-CVT and 7-CVT is from manufacturer datasheet and refer to equivalent speed when compared to conventional AT.

mrjeff is quite right. But it doesn't mean na naka primera lang siya lagi. A CVT is comprised of two pulleys connected by a belt. (Same sa mga motor na mio if you already ridden it). There are no set number of “gears” in a CVT because it can choose the exact gear ratio along a “variable” continuum between it’s lowest and highest gear ratios.

Sa madaling salita, pulleys ang nagpapaandar sa mga CVT na sasakyan at hindi mga gears like the conventional Automatic Transmission cars na may gears.

Agree. Stuck ka sa traffic, less sip ng fuel ang smaller engine

1.6 4at corolla prior the cvts are still fuel efficient if driven economically.

The 2.0cvt cant match 30days of metro manila traffic fc of a 1.6 4at.

For 40liters of 91ron in metro manila:

320-400km on the 1.6 4At
260-340km on the 2.0cvt

Thanks sa clarification. But like what I already said, the 6-CVT and 7-CVT descriptions are from the manufacturer datasheet so I just posted as they are. This thread simply wants to compare small engine with traditional AT vs big engine with CVT.

Oh yea, i forgot. On highway driving, if u di maintain a cruising speed, say 80km/h, the one who has the less rpm wins. I think.

Thanks so converted..

320-400km on the 1.6 4AT = 8-10 km/L
260-340km on the 2.0 CVT = 6.5-8.5 km/L

Are both values from the Corolla Altis?

with this, your query is already answered. up to you to decide.

Yes displacement is a big factor in metro manila.

Okay, thanks again.
