What transmission does a Subaru XV have?

Transmission of Subaru XV
The Subaru XV is equipped with a Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT). This type of transmission does not use traditional gears but instead relies on a belt, chain, and pulleys to transfer power to the driven wheels.
The specific transmission used in the Subaru XV is the Lineartronic CVT. This transmission uses a specially modified torque converter to connect the engine to the transmission. It can slip like a traditional torque converter but remains locked under all conditions except when coasting or traveling at very low speed. The persistent lockup condition under acceleration provides the efficiency and control of a clutch while still behaving much like a traditional planetary automatic transmission. The transmission can also be manually controlled by the driver by providing the ability to select 6 or 7 (if paired with a Diesel engine) or 8 different “virtual” gears, where the transmission will hold a particular ratio.
Subaru has extended the warranty for cars from model years 2010 to 2018 due to complaints about problems with the Lineartronic CVT transmissions.
In summary, the Subaru XV is equipped with a Lineartronic CVT transmission, which provides the efficiency and control of a clutch while still behaving much like a traditional planetary automatic transmission and can be manually controlled by the driver to select different “virtual” gears.
