## Transmission Types Used in Genesis Vehicles
### Automatic Transmissions
Automatic transmissions are the most common type of transmission used in Genesis vehicles. Automatic transmissions use planetary gear sets and hydraulic fluid to shift gears automatically. Genesis vehicles use a variety of automatic transmission types, including:
8-speed automatic transmission: This transmission is used in a variety of Genesis vehicles, including the G70, G80, and G90. It offers smooth shifting and good fuel economy.
10-speed automatic transmission: This transmission is used in the Genesis G90. It offers even smoother shifting and better fuel economy than the 8-speed automatic transmission.
### Dual-Clutch Transmissions (DCT)
Dual-clutch transmissions (DCT) are a type of manual transmission that uses two clutches to shift gears. DCTs offer faster and smoother shifting than traditional manual transmissions, and they also provide better fuel economy. Genesis vehicles use a variety of DCT types, including:
8-speed DCT: This transmission is used in the Genesis G70. It offers quick and precise shifting, and it also provides good fuel economy.
10-speed DCT: This transmission is used in the Genesis G90. It offers even faster and smoother shifting than the 8-speed DCT, and it also provides better fuel economy.
### Continuously Variable Transmissions (CVT)
Continuously variable transmissions (CVT) are a type of transmission that uses a belt or chain to drive the wheels. CVTs offer smooth and seamless shifting, and they also provide good fuel economy. Genesis vehicles use a variety of CVT types, including:
IVT (Intelligent Variable Transmission): This CVT is used in the Genesis G80. It offers smooth and efficient shifting, and it also provides good fuel economy.
eCVT (Electric Continuously Variable Transmission): This CVT is used in the Genesis G90 Electric. It offers smooth and quiet shifting, and it also provides excellent fuel economy.
## Transmission Maintenance
Transmissions are complex mechanical devices that require regular maintenance to ensure proper operation. The following are some of the most important transmission maintenance tasks:
Check the transmission fluid level and condition: The transmission fluid should be checked regularly to ensure that it is at the proper level and condition. If the transmission fluid is low or dirty, it can cause damage to the transmission.
Change the transmission fluid and filter: The transmission fluid and filter should be changed at the recommended intervals specified in the vehicle’s owner’s manual. Changing the transmission fluid and filter will help to keep the transmission clean and free of debris.
Inspect the transmission for leaks: The transmission should be inspected regularly for leaks. If a leak is found, it should be repaired as soon as possible to prevent damage to the transmission.
By following these transmission maintenance tips, you can help to keep your Genesis vehicle running smoothly and efficiently for many years to come.
