Why don't you do a little bit
Why don't you do a little bit of research first before you start spreading misinformation. Firstly, Subaru designs all of their CVTs in house. Just like Honda, Toyota, and NIssan. Subaru doesn't use any of Nissan's CVTS because Subaru's CVTs are designed to work with their AWD system. Secondly, I'm not sure as to what you're referring to when you said, "CVT joke that needs redesign every year." I know Subaru updates transmission components within the CVT but I haven't seen them implement a completely new CVT as in a a redesign of the transmisson. Thirdly, I own a 2019 Subaru Crosstrek and I can say that the CVT in this car is one of the best I've driven so far. My previous car was a Dodge Caliber. That had a Nissan CVT, it was by far the worst CVT I've ever owned. So before you start bashing any car maker, make sure you have the facts. I also have a feeling Subaru may end up using some components from Toyota because Toyota now has 20% ownership within the company. So hopefully they adopt the Launch gear CVT that Toyota has been using for a little while now within their own systems and dual fuel injection.
