The updated transmission has the following features.
The design of the V5MB1 type manual transmission housing provides for increased structural rigidity and reduced noise during operation.
In order to reduce the effort required when shifting gears, dual-cone synchronization mechanisms are used in 1st, 2nd and 3rd gears.
The reverse gear synchronizer has been modified to reduce the effort required to engage it.
The transmission provides 3 wheel drive options:
- rear wheel drive;
- all-wheel drive (4WD) with Easy seiec system;
- all-wheel drive (4WD) with Super select system.
The last two types of drives differ in the complexity of their design and the number of operating modes.
