Amazing. An expensive, complex and quite possibly unreliable solution to the problem we never had.

And when it breaks; no mechanic on Earth will touch it, because it has a CVT.

Thats not a CVT, there is no “continuous” transmission if you have to manually engage the rings, thats just a more complex variable belt transmission
