  CVT transmissions Love them or Leave them

CVT transmissions have been lauded for higher fuel efficiency and 6 speed transmissions. On the negative side they are criticized for boring performance.

When I drove my brother's 2012 Hyundai Elantra it was really really dull, just like driving the old 2 speed autos from ancient times.

Last year the auto pundits chastised the Subaru Forester because it used a conventional 4 speed automatic rather than a contemporary 6 speed auto. Now that the forester has a brand spanking new CVT 6 speed, the experts say it is dull, and that they do not recommend buying it, you should only lease it Smile

So whatever you have it is the opposite that would be more appealing? It is tough writing car reviews after all!

Thanks Greg, I was under the wrong impression that all 6 plus speed transmissions were CVT.
