The global automotive continuously variable transmission system market is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of 5.2% during the forecast period, 2020-2028. The growth of the market is attributed to technological innovations.
A CVT or Continuous Variable Transmission seamlessly changes the gear ratios, which has an unending range, whereas other types of mechanical transmissions offer a fixed number of gear ratios and have hard shifts. CVT systems are also known as single-speed, shiftless, and stepless transmissions.
Technological advancements in the CVT systems helps the auto manufacturers to add value to the vehicles, reduce the costs, and improve the profit margins. The advancements help the manufacturers to meet the requirements of environmental legislation. It is through technology that manufacturers are able to address consumer demands such as safety and comfort.
A traditional transmission uses a wide variety of intricate parts to shift between a range of gears while most CVT systems work through a pulley system. In short, this system consists of cones at each pulley connected via a chain belt. The cones can move across the chain belt to increase or decrease the belt diameter.
