Manual Transmission

Don't underestimate the timeless appeal of the manual transmission. Despite the popularity of automatic transmissions, opting for manual offers a more immersive driving experience. With manual transmission, you’ll have more control, leading to savings in both fuel costs and maintenance expenses.

Automatic Transmission

If you don’t want to worry about manual gear shifting, say hello to a smoother, easier ride with an automatic transmission. Accelerate and decelerate effortlessly while also saving on fuel costs with improved efficiency. Rest easy knowing that automatic transmissions are durable and require less maintenance during their lifespan.

Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT)

A Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) is different from traditional transmissions as it uses a belt and pulley system to shift gears seamlessly, offering improved control and power. This innovative technology is quickly becoming popular because it delivers both fuel efficiency and performance in a single package. Its quick response times also make it appealing for those looking for an impressive drive.

Semi-Automatic Transmission

For anyone in the market for a new car and confused about which transmission to opt for, consider the numerous advantages of a semi-automatic transmission:

• Enhanced control
• Popular in high-performance vehicles
• Responds quickly and smoothly
