Umm new technology? CVT
Umm new technology? CVT transmissions have been around for decades. Subaru first used them in 1989 I think. As the saying goes "a bad tradesman blames his tools". If you service your car regularly and properly oh and also learn how to drive your car properly you will find a CVT especially one made by Subaru will be so much more fun to drive than your normal AT and will last heaps longer too. In future please don't hate on something just because you don't know how to maintain or drive the car you have bought.
