Clutch

Improved operability

• A hydraulic clutch control mechanism is used.

Manual Transmission [M15M-D]

Improved operability

•  A triple-cone synchronizer mechanism has been adopted for 1st and 2nd gears.

•  A double-cone synchronizer mechanism has been adopted for 3rd gears.

•  A carbon synchronizer mechanism has been adopted for 4th gears.

•  Low friction bushings have been adopted for the shift rod supporting area.

•  With the adoption of a low spring constant and high set load type 1-2 return spring, a secure neutral position is assured.

Improved driveability

•  To improve drivetrain rigidity, a closed section power plant frame (PPF) has been adopted.

Improved reliability

•  A double engagement prevention mechanism (interlock mechanism) has been adopted.

Mis-shift prevention

•  A cam-type reverse lock-out mechanism has been adopted.

Manual Transmission [P66M-D]

Improved operability

•  A triple-cone synchronizer mechanism has been adopted for 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th gears.

•  Low friction bushings for the shift rod have been adopted.

Improved driveability

•  In order to obtain more power from the engine, the total gear ratio has been set lower and the difference between each gear ratio has been set closer.

•  To improve drivetrain rigidity, the power plant frame (PPF) has been adopted.

Improved fuel economy

•  Six-speed P66M-D manual transmission has been adopted.

Improved marketability

•  Six-speed P66M-D manual transmission has been adopted.

Improved reliability

•  A double engagement prevention mechanism (interlock mechanism) has been adopted.

Mis-shift prevention

•  A push-type reverse lockout mechanism has been adopted.

Automatic Transmission [SJ6A-EL]

Improved fuel economy

•  Six-speed SJ6A-EL automatic transmission has been adopted.

Improved marketability

•  Six-speed SJ6A-EL automatic transmission has been adopted.

•  The Sport AT has been adopted. With this feature up and downshifting can be performed with either the shift control switch on the steering wheel or with the one-touch operation of the selector lever.

•  A 5-6 shift inhibit control has been adopted for rapid engine warming.

Superior shift quality

•  Torque reduction control and line pressure control has been adopted.

•  Shift learning control has been adopted.

Improved driveability

•  Active Adaptive Shift (AAS) has been adopted.

•  To improve drivetrain rigidity, power plant frame (PPF) has been adopted.

•  A control feature for climbing/descending hills has been adopted, improving driveability when climbing/descending.

Improved operability

•  A direct mode control has been adopted.
