Transmission (“one-motor two-clutch” type) for a F.W.D. hybrid vehicle with a built-in motor and a clutch for engaging or disconnecting engine in the converter housing of the CVT has been achieved. This is both compact and lighter than ever before, and allows to be installed onto many model grades. JATCO will offer the new products with high environmental performance further.
In city driving, the motor make it possible to turn the engine off frequently. The engine can also be disengaged completely with the clutch, and energy can be recovered effectively when braking. Fuel economy is improved in high-speed driving situations through a new CVT with significant friction reduction and wider ratio coverage.
The required power is generated through motor assist. By combining a smooth-shifting CVT that cannot be experienced on standard transmission with power generated at low rpm, it achieves a good response and direct feel which can always respond to the driver’s needs.
