What Is the Difference Between EMT And Paramedic?
The EMT gearbox is actually GM added several patented technologies to the AMT automatic transmission module produced by Magneti Marelli.
EMT gearbox
- One of them is to simulate the crawling function of an automatic gearbox. When in forward gear, as long as the brake is released, it will creep slowly. From this point of view, EMT is actually an upgraded AMT gearbox.
- This
- Wait to establish a shifting model that matches the working conditions at all times. The motor completes the entire process of automatic shifting under the control of this model.
- EMT performs shifting more in electric mode. It has the following advantages: low transmission energy consumption, high power transmission efficiency, low cost, simple structure, low maintenance cost, and mature products. However, because the gear shift is performed too much by the electronic control element, the sense of frustration is enhanced, which will have a certain impact on driving comfort.
- EMT gearbox is a set of electronic
- EMT gearboxes are different from ordinary automatic gearboxes. It is a new gearbox redesigned based on the principle of mechanical shifting. Because the gear mechanism of the EMT transmission and the manual transmission is the same, unlike the ordinary automatic transmission, there is a relatively large power loss, so the fuel consumption is basically the same as the manual model. Because it is computer-controlled gear shift, for novice or unskilled people, using EMT gearbox is more fuel efficient than ordinary manual gearbox. And do nt need to replace expensive ones like automatic transmissions
- This structure was first applied to the Ferrari F1. High-performance vehicles including the Audi R8 also use this structure of gearboxes. Alfa Romeo, Citroen C4, BMW and Opel sold in Europe have models equipped with this gearbox. This technology has become very popular in Europe.
- What we currently know
- EMT gearbox is similar in operation but different from ordinary automatic gearbox. There is also no clutch pedal under the foot, and you only need to easily control the throttle and brake.
- 1. There is no P position in EMT, so you need to push the gear lever to N position and pull up the handbrake when stopping.
- 2. When starting on a ramp, you cannot rely solely on the crawling function. You need to use the hand brake to cooperate with the throttle linkage.
- 3. Switching between manual, automatic, and sport gear can be performed while the vehicle is moving, but it needs a 1-2 second pause and it should not be switched frequently.
