It doesn't have a CVT. Ignorance on behalf of even car journos.


Strange for one who claims to have one. The original didn't, although it
still had a gearbox. The heavily revised new one does - as does the Lexus.

I suspect it's to improve the fuel consumption at speed. We'll see when
Autocar tests it.

Of course since they heavily revised the design, the old model will be
worth even less.
