I love MTs. I've driven both AT and MT, driving uphills and city traffics, I'd still take MT as my daily. It also helps me keep awake and alert while driving.
80% of drivers have never heard of rev matching. I drive motorcycles as well, sometimes I don’t even use the clutch to shift gears, only do the rev matching
Me personally, I love the constant going first, second, third, second, clutch in, breaking, neutral, first, second, first, second.. when going home from work at rush hour... definitely not times when I would wish me an automatic, no no
@@SirBalageG In the US. Everybody in other countries (that prefer manuals unlike USA) knows about rev matching because it fucking shifts the car all over if you don't. (at least on higher RPM) Overall budget-wise manual is the best, otherwise automatic is just manual with duct-tape so i'd pick CVT over automatic any time. Problem is, it can't transfer too much power because of the belt.
@@tomsterbg8130 to be fair, if I had to chose between electric and CVT I'd go for the electric. I wish I could get a rex or some similar shit, it'd be perfect for daily life and the occasional 600 km journey twice a year
I finally found out why non-car enthusiasts hate driving so much after my Honda broke down and I had to drive my mom's kia for a month. Y'all just need a more fun car simple as that. And a manual transmission can really make any car fun tbh.
Depends where you live like it states here in the video. Of you live in a city where you will deal with traffic auto just seems like a better way to go.
you’re totally right. i taught a lot of my friends how to drive stick on my e46, its slower than all their cars but now they want manuals too! nothing like fun driving.
Note that the section on CVT describes the old belt type of CVT, whereas some of the images are of Toyota eCVT equipped models, such as the Prius. The Toyota eCVT does not use belt drives at all. Their current system has a planetary gear set, with a motor generator (MG1) which controls the ratio electronically. The models with that type of transmission have no belt driven items at all - MG1 is an alternator/motor (variable frequency 3-phase AC), both used to start the engine when required, and to churn out electric power. The engines use chain drive for the camshafts, so no belts at all in those. Other items, like cooling fans, & air con, use electric motors.
Driving a manual transmission is like God sitting beside you. It’s totally safe! Accidents happen anytime but you still have the precious seconds to respond! That’s the power of manual transmission!💪
So illogical!! If touvecee actually drove a manual transmission vehicle you'd never make the above statement. What does the transmission have to do with making vehicles safer!?
Wife and I exclusively drive manual vehicles. It's amazing how much more in tune you are with both your car and other drivers. It makes driving fun, and it has to be for how much I drive for work/play.
My first car was an automatic transmission and later I switch to a manual transmission. I think the transition took a while and was worth it. I love manual transmission! I have control over the car and it feels like a relationship
I’m really torn, I’m gonna buy my first car so any transmission will have a learning curve for me. Which do you think is better cost and resale value wise?
I have one each of 5-speed manual and 10-speed automatic. Both are awesome in their respective cars (2010 Impreza 5-door, 2020 Mustang turbo convertible). The Impreza is a blast to drive and handles great, while the Mustang is a wonderful cruiser which handles well enough and has great acceleration. I’m glad each has the transmission it has.

This vid leaves out some important considerations. True... enthusiasts usually find a manual transmission more engaging, more fun. But most drivers do NOT measure their driving satisfaction by their ability to operate a clutch and shifter skillfully. And although the manual transmission is mechanically more efficient than automatic alternatives, most drivers are not able to operate a manual transmission with sufficient skill to achieve better performance OR better fuel efficiency that a well-engineered automatic transmission. MOST enthusiasts and environmentalists who believe they are skilled at operating a manual trans. fall short of the performance and efficiency modern automatics can deliver.
@@xtrekrex I will certainly agree that dual clutch transmissions raise the performance potential of "automated transmissions" to an even higher level. But I will stand by my judgement that most MT drivers who think they are better than a well calibrated AT... aren't.
Whatever performance gains the automatic has on the manual is only a fraction of a second. But in terms of down time when repairs are required, the shorter down time of a manual transmission vs an automatic transmission is more than enough to wipe away the deficit by days. By design a manual transmission design wear is more like a service than a repair. It is essentially a brake pad and rotor connectivity. Serviceable in just a few hours. An automatic transmission on the other hand when it is worn out is not only more difficult in dealing with a heavier, larger unit but there is much more work than a few hours and the repairs more than just a service. Manual transmissions = More like military grade, field serviceable and shorter down time with minimal tools. Automatic transmission = More like a commercial item, harder to service (needing service mode, correct temp, just to read the oil etc), harder repairs, longer down time designed to justify the larger bill.
... if it even needs service at all. I had one manual transmission car that I bought new, and had it for 15.5 years. The transmission and clutch were still factory original when I got rid of the car, and fully functional, with no noticeable wear or slippage.
Modern Automatics are not even close for commercial grade, more like DISPOSABLE grade, like diapers. Most of the automatics, CVT and DCT are so complex, it is cheaper and easier for the repair shop to replace a new ones rather than grinding their way of rebuilding it and often they cant get it right because of too many constant and variables. Older automatics such as hydramtic, TH350 etc are exception, they are robust and easier to rebuild.
It depends on what you are going to do with the car, sure they are more economical and give better performance...but get inconvenient in city drive...I I drive an average of 50km a week (in a boring car making boring shit), my knee starts to hurt after a while, for new drivers it's intimidating (especially uphill), there are a lot of skills that you have to master (the clutch point using, knee technique, quick acceleration, brake and clutch, know when to use gears, etc.) Don't get it wrong, it's a lot easier than it sounds, and it all turns into muscle memories after a while, but automatic is more convenient for most people
Manual driving is so very easy, no matter what type of engine, manual or automatic, they same easy to drive, the important is that you have a driver's license before driving
My current car, Chevy Malibu Hybrid 2018 has a CVT, my very first time driving it, and I'm never going back to regular automatic.. The smoothness is amazing.. When my friends drive my car.. They love it. Yet, has a nice pick up when needed. Been having a hard time finding a new car I want to get with a CVT, but might just get the next cadillac lyric instead and call it a day. More into a smooth comfortable ride than struggling to drive... My car is almost 5 years now.. And still feeling very smooth
Honda made their CVT feel like a regular automatic transmission with actual gears. It is nice and seems sturdy. When the car is moving faster, you get the feel of a gear change. In reality, the CVT is operating normally, giving you the more customary gear change feel. People freaked out when they were accelerating but the engine RPM remained constant.
Here's a good explanation why racers and off road enthusiasts go for manual. I first learned how to drive on a 4 speed 1982 Mitsubushi Lancer. I learned automatic on a year 2000+ Nissan Sentra. It only took me around 5-10 minutes to learn.😅😅😅
I have now got a car with a CVT transmission after having previously driven cars with manual and automatic transmission for over 50 years. Compared to the other transmissions the CVT is extremely good for climbing steep hills as there is no dwell caused by changing gear.
It was the opposite for me. CVT transmissions seem to struggle on long steep hills, like westbound 2222 between Mopac Loop 1 and Highway 620 in Austin. Drop my 6 speed manual Kia Forte down to 4th gear and that 2222 hill is no problem.
Audi's CVT is a dream. The combination i drive is a 3.0 V6 with CVT. Smooth acceleration at a constant max torque. Maximum comfort and very low gasconsumption because the motor doesn't rev up unnecessarily. Want to play enjoying the V6 roar? Use the paddles. Durability? Flush the gearbox every 50.000 miles and drive it with care (full stop before putting it from D to R or vv.). Never a automatic/shift gear for me again.
I learnt driving on a motorcycle manual transmissions, from there the love of manual transmission kept on growing I've zero interest in automatic vehicles, but I'd love to try out a CVT
Wow this video was extremely informative, I am planning to buy a new used car but I am thinking of the benefits of getting one car with manual gears, for the fun the car, but at the same time, automatic transmission is less of a hassle. So it seems I have a lot to think about which transmission to choose 🤔 Thank you guys for this great video. Keep up the good work.
If you are a first time driver I would advice to first start with a manual. Manual helps you learn how to actually drive but with automatic you are just controlling.

I’m watching this before starting driving school. I’m excited to learn manual! It’s just sad that most premium cars only has manual as their base models usually. And those with better interior and other features are reserved for the automatics and cvts
I love manual. But I love EVs too. If going for an ICE car, I would go manual, preferably a 6-speed manual. But if going for an EV, I’d go have a single speed transmission.
Manual transmission is the trans that lasts the longest. Full clutch type automatic transmissions are also very good as a whole with proper servicing. CVT trans in theory are very good but they have inherent problems with slippage of the drive belt if the drive and driven pulley don’t maintain the correct pulley width to keep the drive belt firmly clamped. They also create a lot of metal filings which can damage internal components. Coupled with the fact that everything is controlled electronically this adds to the problems that occur with these transmissions. Many newer models are fully sealed for life and have no filler or dipstick. My car had to have it CVT replaced under warranty at only 48000km. CVT transmissions are probably the most common trans around today in the small to medium size cars.
I have the opinion that for a first car, a new driver should learn and drive with a manual transmission, which in truth, it is somewhat more difficult to master, but nevertheless give the driver the opportunity to "feel" the car and have a better control and comprehension of the different mechanical elements that are part of the vehicle. After that, it is up to the driver to decide if they want to continue with the simpler but more cumbersome manual transmission (like in my case), or choose to "upgrade" to an automatic or CVT transmission. Learning the other way around deprives the initial driver with the opportunity to learn manual and makes, in general, a much worse driver in terms of mastery of the machine.
Indeed. That’s what my parents told me once about learning how to drive. U gotta start with the manual first, because if u can drive a manual, that also def means u can drive other transmissions as well.
If I had the choice I would have a manual gearbox in my Audi S5, but I don't & have to suffer the 7 speed DSG. You really cannot feel the car, even in the manual mode. The clutch on a proper manual gives you that feeling. The CVT is not new. I used to have a 1976 Volvo 66GL (look it up) & it was an awful experience. I didn't complain because it was my Grandfathers & he gave it to me. Manual transmissions go better downhill aswell. You can use the engine & gearbox for braking & controlling you speed in snowy/icey conditions. Great vid.....
Nothing beats a manual transmission. When you drive a manual transmission car, you, the driver, calls the shots, you control the drive (speed, power, momentum, etc) on the car, and most importantly for me, keeps my mind challenged, makes it processing all along I'm moving the car. Automatic transmission just doesn't cut it for me.
I used to drive a 45' bus with an automatically shifting MANUAL transmission. Air pressure operated the clutch and shifted gears while the computer lifted off the throttle and reapplied it as it shifted. Have to be careful too because it can roll backwards when stopped. They don't have a "park" selection on the gear selector. All the drivers I worked with HATE those buses because they are so slow accelerating.
I was on the highway during rush hour and brakes failed. I safely downshifted and exited. Tell me what you would do in an automatic or CVT with only the e-parking brake that won't engage when the vehicle is moving?
I've Driven A 91 Subaru Loyale Equipped With A 5 Speed Manual With 4WD On Demand, A 2014 Nissan Versa Note SV With A CVT & Now Own A 2013 Lexus RX350 AWD With A 6 Speed Automatic Transmission That Has A Manual Mode
I've driven both manual and auto vehicles. Both have advantages and disadvantages. I prefer driving manuals on long distance drives. Around cities, i prefer auto's. I learnt to drive a manual. My wife has a restriction on her license, so, she can only drive an auto. She also mentioned she doesn't have the foot, hand, hearing coordination for a manual (i am NOT judging). It really is upto the individual which they want, what they can drive, what type of driving (city, long distance or combination of borh) they are doing.
I Enjoyed your Video, and I think it is helpful for a totally "Non-Car-Person"... But... I would have liked more details about HOW a dual clutch trans works, besides just saying it has 2 clutches. "Dual-Clutch" means "2 Clutches"... but that tells us nothing about how it works. Similar question about "Automatics" that work with a torque-converter... but HOW do they actually shift from gear to gear, and HOW do ANY of the "Automatics" Know When to shift and whether to shift UP or Down..?
Hello bro please also explain about the indicator P R N D and other + - etc how the are operated and when. So that it will be much easier to understand the usage.
Clutch? I only use the clutch to get moving from a dead stop. Truck drivers call it "floating the gears", while race car drivers call it "matching revs". Learning to go up and down through the gears without using the clutch is tough, but the feeling you get when you figure it out is amazing.
Driving MT in uphill mountainous roads is a life and death battle especially if your engine died in the middle of your climb in a 22 degress angle. While driving AT is comfort and peace of mind. I love driving in both MT and AT. But traffic nowadays makes me prefer to drive in AT for no stress.
At your fifties try to return from work with a manual, stucked at traffic for two hours only with first and second gear. Believe me, it takes away all the fun to driving a car. I do it for many years and my back and my left leg are damaged. The clutch pedal is the devil. When you are young if fun. But when you are older is bad. Unfortunately in my country i cannot afford to buy an automatic transmission so..😂
Hi I have a Mazda CX9 2009 which I bought preloved 2 years back. Am awesome car huge space however the CVT gear has now broken down & is a headache getting repaired - replacement costs are upwards of $1300. The garage guy says a small oil leak caused this. Just to inform you all A small leak can cause a huge drain in future so keep your cars well looked after - I learned it the hard way😩
My vehicle has automatic transmission in it. I never learned to drive a manual transmission. My vehicle automatic transmission is a dial. It took me about a week or 2 to get used to. My last vehicle was an automatic transmission. Even my 1st 3 vehicles were also an automatic.
Automatics with a nearly flat dial-selector are best, because then the gear shift, or gear selection stick, doesn't get accidentally bumped out of gear, when your girl is leaning over from the passenger side, for a better view of you.
If you're driving a fast muscle car, a manual is great. Every other vehicle is best with an automatic. Having to go through gears without any performance is disappointment after disappointment. What's the point? I love my '05 Jeep TJ Rocky Mtn automatic. It's a lot more fun driving on road and especially off road with the growl from the Banks cat back exhaust. Not obnoxiously loud but throaty for the low end torque TJ, with that amazing AMC 4.0 I6. Now if I were to get a '68 Camaro SS, then I'm looking for a manual.
If you good at driving manual transmission you should have no problem in any kind of traffic, I could drive manual without using clutch I do same thing with my semi truck I use the clutch only to take off 10 speed Eaton fuller.
The video did leave out one con on manual. That is steep hills. When stop on a steep hill you to worry about the car sometimes rolling back. It can often be little scary if you are at stop light on a steep hill and the car behind you pulls up right on your bumper.
An interesting video. I prefer a manual box, but now have an automatic. One correction to your commentary - in the US early automatics were two or three speeds, not four. More ratios have added only in recent years.
The best Automatic gearbox in my opinion is the DSG ( Direct shift gearbox ) or dual clutch gears are smooth especially like the VOLKSWAGEN cars now Audi have them
So CVT and AT are almost identical. The difference is the power and the way the gear shifts. I currently have a manual transmission and I'm planning to buy either an AT or CVT.
I miss my 92 Honda Prelude SI manual it was my first manual that I personally owned and learned how to drive manuals from my grandpa and dad's car but my Prelude was my favorite and more fun to drive.
i owned a manual before swtiching to electric. CVTs just sound pathetic and i manage to confuse most manuals. the few ive driven refused to change the gear when i let off the gas pedal since i tend to floor it and than let go of the gas pedal and cruise. electric works best for me since it allows for access to all avalible power but doesn't waste anything just cruising along. also, the only way to get a manual to engine brake is by reving it pretty high while with an electric car, its just throttle remap.
To engine break with a manual, you gear down or simply take foot off the gas then push the clutch in and "ride" it til the desired speed drop has been achieved.
@@remiem-iw7uk if I understand what u just said correctly u r suggesting using a 300€ clutch to brake instead of 20€ brake pads that were designed to do so? Or free engine compression?

Want to play enjoying the V6 roar? Use the paddles.
Durability? Flush the gearbox every 50.000 miles and drive it with care (full stop before putting it from D to R or vv.).
Never a automatic/shift gear for me again.
I learnt driving on a motorcycle manual transmissions, from there the love of manual transmission kept on growing I've zero interest in automatic vehicles, but I'd love to try out a CVT
Wow this video was extremely informative, I am planning to buy a new used car but I am thinking of the benefits of getting one car with manual gears, for the fun the car, but at the same time, automatic transmission is less of a hassle. So it seems I have a lot to think about which transmission to choose 🤔
Thank you guys for this great video. Keep up the good work.
If you are a first time driver I would advice to first start with a manual. Manual helps you learn how to actually drive but with automatic you are just controlling.
manual is the best
I have to say manual transmission for me all easy for service and cheaper to replace

CVT I believe was first introduced in the UK in the 60's/70's in the DAF 55 VARIOMATIC
Very helpful, very informative. Thank you.
I’m watching this before starting driving school. I’m excited to learn manual! It’s just sad that most premium cars only has manual as their base models usually. And those with better interior and other features are reserved for the automatics and cvts
true 😥 i think they discriminate the manual transmission
I think following your explanation, I love manual
I love manual. But I love EVs too. If going for an ICE car, I would go manual, preferably a 6-speed manual. But if going for an EV, I’d go have a single speed transmission.
Nice
Manual is the best.
Please give a video about steering system use in tracked vehicles.
Sure
@@TheEngineersPost Thank you very much ❤❤❤
Manual transmission is the trans that lasts the longest. Full clutch type automatic transmissions are also very good as a whole with proper servicing. CVT trans in theory are very good but they have inherent problems with slippage of the drive belt if the drive and driven pulley don’t maintain the correct pulley width to keep the drive belt firmly clamped. They also create a lot of metal filings which can damage internal components. Coupled with the fact that everything is controlled electronically this adds to the problems that occur with these transmissions. Many newer models are fully sealed for life and have no filler or dipstick.
My car had to have it CVT replaced under warranty at only 48000km. CVT transmissions are probably the most common trans around today in the small to medium size cars.
Sounds like a American car.
You have to replace the clutch on a manual as maintenance
Manual transmission is simply the best.
Comparing them when they are new and working as their makers intended?
Or comparing them over 10 to 40 years of usage?
I have the opinion that for a first car, a new driver should learn and drive with a manual transmission, which in truth, it is somewhat more difficult to master, but nevertheless give the driver the opportunity to "feel" the car and have a better control and comprehension of the different mechanical elements that are part of the vehicle. After that, it is up to the driver to decide if they want to continue with the simpler but more cumbersome manual transmission (like in my case), or choose to "upgrade" to an automatic or CVT transmission. Learning the other way around deprives the initial driver with the opportunity to learn manual and makes, in general, a much worse driver in terms of mastery of the machine.
Indeed. That’s what my parents told me once about learning how to drive. U gotta start with the manual first, because if u can drive a manual, that also def means u can drive other transmissions as well.
not to mention if you are licensed to drive a manual, you're also licensed to drive an automatic. it doesn't apply the other way around
I completely agree.
If I had the choice I would have a manual gearbox in my Audi S5, but I don't & have to suffer the 7 speed DSG. You really cannot feel the car, even in the manual mode. The clutch on a proper manual gives you that feeling. The CVT is not new. I used to have a 1976 Volvo 66GL (look it up) & it was an awful experience. I didn't complain because it was my Grandfathers & he gave it to me. Manual transmissions go better downhill aswell. You can use the engine & gearbox for braking & controlling you speed in snowy/icey conditions. Great vid.....
I like manual transmission because I like to be connected to my car and to feel the love of driving a car.
Manual for the win
Manual, no doubt!
Nothing beats a manual transmission. When you drive a manual transmission car, you, the driver, calls the shots, you control the drive (speed, power, momentum, etc) on the car, and most importantly for me, keeps my mind challenged, makes it processing all along I'm moving the car. Automatic transmission just doesn't cut it for me.
Manual is definetly the best.
manual hands down, it's really the only way to have the most control, and the most exciting to drive especially on curvy back roads
There's also clutchless stick in BMW cars, there's a dial for the clutch to adjust shifting
I used to drive a 45' bus with an automatically shifting MANUAL transmission. Air pressure operated the clutch and shifted gears while the computer lifted off the throttle and reapplied it as it shifted. Have to be careful too because it can roll backwards when stopped. They don't have a "park" selection on the gear selector. All the drivers I worked with HATE those buses because they are so slow accelerating.
I was on the highway during rush hour and brakes failed. I safely downshifted and exited. Tell me what you would do in an automatic or CVT with only the e-parking brake that won't engage when the vehicle is moving?
Put it in neutral and hope for the best
handbrake obviously :)
@@bharatdhurua953 New cars don't have a hand brake and just have the electronic parking brake that only engages when the car is stopped
@@Tyrael1701 omg what the fuc automatic cars owner would be in risk then :(
@@bharatdhurua953 and even manual, downshifting still needs a little time. Hope it changes at some point.
I've Driven A 91 Subaru Loyale Equipped With A 5 Speed Manual With 4WD On Demand, A 2014 Nissan Versa Note SV With A CVT & Now Own A 2013 Lexus RX350 AWD With A 6 Speed Automatic Transmission That Has A Manual Mode
If you want to drive sporty , manual .
If you want relaxing comfort , automatic .
I've driven both manual and auto vehicles. Both have advantages and disadvantages. I prefer driving manuals on long distance drives. Around cities, i prefer auto's. I learnt to drive a manual. My wife has a restriction on her license, so, she can only drive an auto. She also mentioned she doesn't have the foot, hand, hearing coordination for a manual (i am NOT judging). It really is upto the individual which they want, what they can drive, what type of driving (city, long distance or combination of borh) they are doing.
I Enjoyed your Video, and I think it is helpful for a totally "Non-Car-Person"... But... I would have liked more details about HOW a dual clutch trans works, besides just saying it has 2 clutches. "Dual-Clutch" means "2 Clutches"... but that tells us nothing about how it works. Similar question about "Automatics" that work with a torque-converter... but HOW do they actually shift from gear to gear, and HOW do ANY of the "Automatics" Know When to shift and whether to shift UP or Down..?
For traffic the best is manual because is something happens to the car you can still move it without damaging the gearbox
Manual transmission is my favourite...that's real driving!
The clutch pedal is a must for me aromatic/tiptronic doesn’t even feel like your driving
I have used all of them. In my opinion 1: manual 2: Automatic, 3: Cvt
some of the pics in your video reminds me of my BMW X5, I miss that semi-digital automatic clutching of bm
Hello bro please also explain about the indicator P R N D and other + - etc how the are operated and when. So that it will be much easier to understand the usage.
Sure! thanks for the suggestion
Clutch?
I only use the clutch to get moving from a dead stop.
Truck drivers call it "floating the gears", while race car drivers call it "matching revs".
Learning to go up and down through the gears without using the clutch is tough, but the feeling you get when you figure it out is amazing.
Driving in the city day to day, conventional automatic every time. Weekend drive for fun, definitely manual.
I like the DSG system, which is VW's marketing name for their dual clutch automatic.
Driving MT in uphill mountainous roads is a life and death battle especially if your engine died in the middle of your climb in a 22 degress angle. While driving AT is comfort and peace of mind. I love driving in both MT and AT. But traffic nowadays makes me prefer to drive in AT for no stress.
I like manual ,,I like being fun while driving
At your fifties try to return from work with a manual, stucked at traffic for two hours only with first and second gear. Believe me, it takes away all the fun to driving a car. I do it for many years and my back and my left leg are damaged. The clutch pedal is the devil. When you are young if fun. But when you are older is bad. Unfortunately in my country i cannot afford to buy an automatic transmission so..😂
Very Informative 👏🏽
Hi I have a Mazda CX9 2009 which I bought preloved 2 years back. Am awesome car huge space however the CVT gear has now broken down & is a headache getting repaired - replacement costs are upwards of $1300. The garage guy says a small oil leak caused this. Just to inform you all A small leak can cause a huge drain in future so keep your cars well looked after - I learned it the hard way😩
Manual transmission is the best love it so much
I drive a manual and I enjoy the fact I'm always in full control of my vehicle 🤷♂️
impressed
My vehicle has automatic transmission in it. I never learned to drive a manual transmission. My vehicle automatic transmission is a dial. It took me about a week or 2 to get used to. My last vehicle was an automatic transmission. Even my 1st 3 vehicles were also an automatic.
Automatic it s the best, i drove only manual but i had the chance to drive a automatic and now i want only automatic it is so simple and relaxing
Automatics with a nearly flat dial-selector are best, because then the gear shift, or gear selection stick, doesn't get accidentally bumped out of gear, when your girl is leaning over from the passenger side, for a better view of you.
If you're driving a fast muscle car, a manual is great. Every other vehicle is best with an automatic. Having to go through gears without any performance is disappointment after disappointment. What's the point? I love my '05 Jeep TJ Rocky Mtn automatic. It's a lot more fun driving on road and especially off road with the growl from the Banks cat back exhaust. Not obnoxiously loud but throaty for the low end torque TJ, with that amazing AMC 4.0 I6. Now if I were to get a '68 Camaro SS, then I'm looking for a manual.
If you good at driving manual transmission you should have no problem in any kind of traffic, I could drive manual without using clutch I do same thing with my semi truck I use the clutch only to take off 10 speed Eaton fuller.
Manual Transmission cars are awesome.
Toyota Prime hybrid CVT is the best idea there is. Go look up the video on it is amazing.
The video did leave out one con on manual. That is steep hills. When stop on a steep hill you to worry about the car sometimes rolling back. It can often be little scary if you are at stop light on a steep hill and the car behind you pulls up right on your bumper.
CVTs are smoother accelerating. It’s crazy that some manufacturers put artificial bumps in the power curve.
the manual seems good and where is located the filter for such gearbox
Had a stickshift as my second car, never again, the stalling and hill roll was too annoying, but hey it’s a good thing to know regardless
On automatics, why do we push the lever forward to go in reverse and pull the lever back to go forward
An interesting video. I prefer a manual box, but now have an automatic. One correction to your commentary - in the US early automatics were two or three speeds, not four. More ratios have added only in recent years.
It is an valuable video made me to understand the meaning of cvt now and how to use it and when thanks 😊 for that
It is bs. Hybrids doesn't have cvt.
Till now I'm still love driving manual. Started my first and now the second car. No hassle on any traffic matter.
Manual over all 🤘🏼
Depends upon the traffic across the city
The best Automatic gearbox in my opinion is the DSG ( Direct shift gearbox ) or dual clutch gears are smooth especially like the VOLKSWAGEN cars now Audi have them
perfectly explained 🙏👏
I still prefer manual transmission. Old is gold
So CVT and AT are almost identical. The difference is the power and the way the gear shifts. I currently have a manual transmission and I'm planning to buy either an AT or CVT.
"There's no automatic only manual." Classic line from Ghostbusters! Or was it something about Dana?
I miss my 92 Honda Prelude SI manual it was my first manual that I personally owned and learned how to drive manuals from my grandpa and dad's car but my Prelude was my favorite and more fun to drive.
I fell in love manual cars from a kid when I see my big brother drive one
Thanks for the video... i choose Manual Of course...best with turbo charged engine
Not swayed - it still has the belt, which will still stretch and slip eventually. The beltless e-CVT is the only CVT I would buy.
I love CVT or automstic specially in the congested city… so tiring of using manual
i owned a manual before swtiching to electric. CVTs just sound pathetic and i manage to confuse most manuals. the few ive driven refused to change the gear when i let off the gas pedal since i tend to floor it and than let go of the gas pedal and cruise. electric works best for me since it allows for access to all avalible power but doesn't waste anything just cruising along. also, the only way to get a manual to engine brake is by reving it pretty high while with an electric car, its just throttle remap.
To engine break with a manual, you gear down or simply take foot off the gas then push the clutch in and "ride" it til the desired speed drop has been achieved.
@@remiem-iw7uk if I understand what u just said correctly u r suggesting using a 300€ clutch to brake instead of 20€ brake pads that were designed to do so? Or free engine compression?
Enlightening good video 💯
I live in a country where heavy traffic is a nightmare and my transmission of choice is automatic, DSG to be precise from VW.
If i have to choose between Automatic and CVT which one are more reliable last longer ???
I love manual transmition. Because I lived in highland and village. I need 4x4 because sometimes need to go offroad.
