Benefits of a Mercedes-Benz CVT
Fuel efficiency: Unlike standard automatics, the Mercedes-Benz CVT can change the gear ratio indefinitely to keep the engine running at peak efficiency. By operating on an ingenious pulley system that has a higher number of gears available, combined with an infinite variability between highest and lowest gears, resulting in significantly better fuel economy.
Effortless driving: A Mercedes-Benz CVT is fitted with an electronic component known as the transmission control module. Amongst many other functions the TCM ensures that the CVT transmission is always in the most optimal gear ratio, while adapting to your driving style and road conditions. As there are no physical gear changes taking place, the Mercedes-Benz CVT transmission shifts through gear ratios effortlessly and seamlessly.
Disadvantages of Mercedes-Benz CVT
It has a slightly ‘off’ feeling: If you’re a seasoned driver with many years of experience, the Mercedes-Benz CVT will feel strange, as if the transmission is slipping. This sensation is felt due the gear ratio changes being affected by the input and output variators. This process is much smoother than actual gear changes. For the very same reason the throttle response may feel slightly delayed compared to standard automatic transmissions.
Lack of skilled technicians: A problematic Mercedes-Benz CVT requires the expertise and experience of skilled technicians. This is one transmission that is completely different to other automatic transmissions. Enduro gearbox Centre is a distinguished supplier of Mercedes-Benz CVT transmissions.
