CVVT engine?

Is our car having a CVVT engine?If it is, why didnt they stick the cvvt logo?or maybe they are going to bring another batch of forte having cvvt just like hyundai did to their trajet?

Kia and Hyundai 1.6 engines are CVVT-engineered. They don't need to stick "CVVT" logo like the Toyota's VVT-i. We know it is there already.

but avante stick it?hmm.vvt. kia rio?cvvt.

if u know the engine well.. u will know it create with CVVT technology.. that is the reason for them not sticking the emblem.

I wont want them to paste too.. Lolz..

I asked myself this question before. The car brochure said both 2.0L and 1.6L are both CVVT.

Hence I assumed it is CVVT.

stick CVVT...followed by Made In Korea......

think those stick with CVVT cos that is the main selling point.
just like VTEC back in 90's?
Nowadays only MIM and MIC would want to should about this.. many moves on with DSG, XWD etc.. haaa..

personally i think forte have too many selling points and this would not be the main... haa..

err... can i know what does CVVT means and what does it does to the performance of the engine?

I always think the word "CVVT" is used for the type of auto transmission rather than type of engine..... think I m outdated liao....

CVVT = Continuously Variable Valve Timing?
similar valve opening technology such as VTEC / CAMPRO / VVT / VANOS. etc...

hope this helps.

bro you are right.....I always get confused with CVT = Continuously Variable Transmission.... which really is CMI....

CVVT = engine technology
CVT = gearbox technology

Toyota Axio using
engine technology = VVTi
gearbox technology = ?? auto / CVT

Most of the car are using CVT now..

Honda Jazz using CVT yet Honda Fit using DVT.

That is the reason why there's gearbox issues during the first 2 batches of Honda Fit..

wow... so chim ah... haha, i can proudly say that my future forte car is with CVT technology.

I think CVT tech is efficient but kind of boring.. underpowered feel to many.

still better than most convention gearboxes that shift like a snail and give you a jerky affair.

so far, the best auto gearboxes are twin sst, dsg, s-tronic, and others. Manual gearbox is no match for these.

can i know what type of gearbox is the cerato using?

conventional auto gearbox.

haa.. yes.. of course.. not about the best... its just sole view on CVT, i liked the GB...
Forte local version is really.. conventional 4AT... us version comes with 5AT / 6MT!! hmm...

how about some views of current cerato owner's view on the auto transmission of the car during driving?

Thanks for info, just know that now.

My 96 days old FORTE EX 1.6 Auto with C V V T performance beats ALL my previous rides. ........ Mini MkII, Suzuki, Ford Laser, H Stella, H Matrix n Kia Sephia
Performance proven on NSHway Sin - Melaka - Sin.
Now....Very Happy FORTE owner
The Forte sale figure is HOT

WSD n KSH are just minor n rectified by Korean Engineers n CnC recently.

actually isnt it better to have 7 gears for auto ? The ride will be even smoother n maybe even save more fuel ?

nice to hear! mini in list! haaa...
thanks for sharing...

Gamma II CVVT Engine. New kim-chi engine technology. Why bother the badge. You don't see Lamborghini wearing V8 badge.

so, our auto gear box is conventional 4AT? Or CVT?

conventional 4AT

personally i think forte gearbox is abit too low.. 5at would be the best choice.. i think... it seems the car low speed FC is kind of bad... (understandably)...

conventional 4AT.

just now went to leng kee showroom to see forte again. noticed that 1.6SX throttle is still using 'cable'. 2.0SX is using e-throttle. Am i right???
