Jazz 1.5 S the BETTER Fit 1.5RS

5AT vs CVT

According to JAZZ Chief Engineer and Large Project Leader, Kohei Hitomi, 5AT has an very particular advantage over CVT during higher speed run. The 5AT is able to put more actual horsepower and torque onto the wheels. The CVT is 5% more efficient at low revs, but at higher revs the 5AT is more efficient. For dynamic performance and feel, 5AT is superior to CVT.
