> 10-speed cvt
CVTs shouldn't even have a concept of "speeds". I absolutely hate how manufacturers will build cars with CVTs and then make them only go into discrete gear ratios. It completely destroys the entire reason for having a CVT.
I understand that they do it because people don't like how CVTs sound/feel, but maybe they should all have 3 modes:
1. Eco - optimizes gear ratio for maximum effeciency
2. Performance - optimizes for maximum power
3. Sport - pretends to be a normal transmission for a better "feel".
