CVT is available in the Honda Civic, Honda Jazz Hybrid, Honda Insight and Honda CRZ replacing the conventional 'automatic' transmission. CVT fully complements these low emission engines. The transmission automatically selects a gear which is nearest to the current road speed.
The result might be slightly better fuel economy along with slightly better acceleration. Popular cars like the Nissan Altima and Murano have used a CVT for years. The Subaru Impreza has an available CVT, the Toyota Prius has one and so does the Honda Accord EX so long as you get the Accord with the smaller 4-cylinder engine. But not all CVTs are the same. Just like engines, seats and in-car audio systems, the way they work varies.
