Car Manufacturers that offer CVTs

The other day a friend asked me which car companies currently offer CVTs in their line-up.

I remember when the Subaru Justy was the only car available with a Continuously Variable Transmission. Then, after an absence of a few years, the innovative transmissions started to reappear in hybrids.

Today CVTs are increasingly common place. A variety of cars, vans, and SUVs transfer power to the wheels via the stepless transmissions. The next car you drive may have one!

The following Manufacturers offer CVT equipped models:

American:
Dodge, Ford, Jeep, Mercury, Saturn

European:
Audi, Fiat, Mercedes, MG, Microcar, Mini, Opel, Rover

Asian:
Honda, Lexus, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Subaru, Toyota

If you are wondering how exactly a CVT differs (no cog-like gears) from a manual or automatic, you can always ask Marshall Brain.
