		spockz on March 10, 2022 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: New cars make me want to Saab (2020) Until it gets confused like an DSG with broken mechatronics. That might just break the gearbox itself. After that happened I drove a Toyota Corolla hybrid with a CVT and it was awesome. High mileage, tranquil, no gaps in acceleration. The only downside was that it is smaller than a Passat (GTE).

I have a Toyota with a CVT and it's amazing.

I think for a long time CVT's suffered from a poor reputation due to the reliability of those 1970'ies DAF cars.
