Continuously Variable Transmission Fluids (CVTF)

Challenges for CVT Technology

In recent years, continuously variable transmissions (CVTs) have become a viable alternative, offering improved fuel economy but presenting unique lubrication challenges for optimal performance. Unlike traditional transmissions, CVTs use a pushbelt or chain between two variable-diameter pulleys, enabling an infinite number of gear ratios.
