The CVT in my car (Subaru) works great, but I just drove a relatively new Nissan this weekend that I am sure had one, and I thought it was a real dog.
That’s probably because the car you got had a CVT with no overdrive.
Overdrive always goes faster.
Nissan has been having some MAJOR problems with their cvt’s. An Atlanta news station did a bit about a woman that had to have her’s replaced 3 times back before Christmas!
You could not pay me to have one! Guess I’ll just keep my old truck as long as I can find someone to rebuild it or the wheels fall off...
