According to Technavio’s research analysis, the improvements in powertrain systems will be one of the major factors that will have a positive impact on the growth of the global automotive continuously variable transmission (CVT) system market till 2021. The automotive powertrain consists of the engine, transmission, and the drivetrain of the vehicle. With better systems in place, mechanical components of a powertrain system are being substituted with electronic components that raises the overall efficiency of the transmission systems. The utilization of enhanced hydraulic systems, high-speed sensors, microprocessors, and high-strength steel metal belts to raise the engine's torque handling capacity is the main factor for growth in the modern CVT system market present in the powertrain systems. In addition to CVT systems, other electronic gearshift control technologies like electronic continuously variable transmissions (ECVT), advanced DCTs, 8-speed AT, 9-speed AT, and 10-speed AT systems are also being developed in the market. Our market research analysts predict that in terms of units, this market will grow at a CAGR of more than 6% by 2021.
The introduction of new CVT designs and models is one of the key trends that will contribute to the growth of this automotive transmission system market in the forthcoming years. The modernization of technology has led to improvements in the automotive CVT systems in terms of refinement and efficiency. Modern CVTs currently utilize better electronic systems in terms of software or components present in an ECU that is also referred as transmission control module (TCM). One of the popular manufacturers, Varibox has also introduced new CVT products that offer an alternative CVT design with numerous benefits to overcome the higher cost and increased complexities of CVT systems.
