>CVT >with paddle shifters Is Honda retarded?

>>17012880
whats wrong with paddle shift? I use it when I feel slow

>>17012880
No, the people who buy modern Honda are and Honda knows this.

>>17012880
Fake shift noise, fake engine noise. These newer shitboxes are junk. An appliance car, nothing more.

>>17012880
Paddle shifters are just a control mechanism for an automatic, not a defining characteristic of a DCT or whatever. Are you retarded?

CVT is a 1-speed transmission. There is no shifting.

Honda used to make pretty sweet cars what the fuck happened?

>>17012978
>calling people retarded on and auto board
>not knowing what a CVT is

>>17012880
Because people complained that CVTs sound like mopeds so manufacturers gave them fake gears.
Think about that, CVTs are supposedly the most efficient kind of transmission, yet people willingly gave up on the whole point of CVTs so that they can hear the engine revving like it was a normal automatic.

I don't blame Honda for doing that, they just do what sells better and it's not like the fact that CVTs with paddles exist is going to affect my life in any way, I blame the people complaining about CVT sound for being complete morons

I'm not a burger. We don't have these things here and we hopefully never will. I can't even imagine what it feels like driving a Cuck Variable Transmission. How bad is it really?

>>17013285
>How bad is it really?
Imagine you're driving a car that's stuck in second gear.
Sounds just like that.

>always stuck in second gear
My literal face when watching the vid.

>>17012880

Why in the name of fuck do CVT's have simulated gears?

>>17013285
>here
Everywhere has CVT, from France to China to Australia and beyond.

>>17013285
Third world tier manufacturers like Mitsubishi and Nissan love them.

Got lazy, just like everyone else, just living on the reputation they made

At least the Koreans are constantly putting effort into their cars now

>>17012880
Every manufacturer does this now, it's not just Honda. Really it comes down to dumb normies ruining things as usual.

>wanting to drive a car that goes ReeeeEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Blame EPA for the CVT faggotry. Support Mazda's improvements of the shitbox engine instead of taking the easy way out by slapping an less reliable maintenance heavy CVT on everything.

>>17013011
That's not even remotely correct. The CVT is constantly shifting, fuckwit. Shifting isn't defined as an abrupt change between 2 set gear ratios.

>>17013577
kek, I thought I recognized that phrase somewhere

>>17013011

Technically it's got an infinite amount of gears.

>>17012880
Civics are the best modern econobox though
aside ofcourse from the Mazda 3 (and thats subjective for the most part)

> inb4 buy a 3k civic

>>17012880
>tfw that's my car in the same color, trim, and transmission

People still give cvts shit and think they're exactly the same as the first generations from over ten years ago.

Cvts are the future and will be in practically every car because they're more efficient and improve fuel economy. Get used to it idiots.

>>17013323
I like it how regardless of the drive mode the car performs relatively the same through all of them

>>17015047
they're still shit, nissan CVT's are the biggest pieces of shit

>they're still shit, nissan CVT's are the biggest pieces of shit

Nissan has been shit for the entirety of the 21st century. Buy a Toyota

>>17013323
>a car that's stuck in 2nd gear
So cvt's are the transmissions that drag cars use??
