The VT5 gearbox of Dongfeng Fengguang 580 Pro is a CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) produced by Nanjing Punch. It has the following advantages and is suitable for the following models:
AdvantagesExcellent Smoothness: The internal structure of the CVT gearbox is composed of two conical pulleys and a steel chain. The steel chain can move on the conical pulleys to achieve speed change and torsion. This structure enables the gearbox to have a very smooth gear - shifting process, and there is almost no sense during driving, which can provide a comfortable driving experience for the driver and passengers.
Good Fuel Economy7: CVT gearboxes can continuously adjust the gear ratio according to the driving conditions, so that the engine can always work in the optimal fuel - consumption area, which helps to improve fuel economy and reduce vehicle operating costs.
Simple Structure and Low Cost: The CVT gearbox has a simple structure, with only two bevel gears and a steel plate chain inside, which is smaller in size and lighter in weight than traditional gearboxes. This not only reduces the production cost, but also is convenient for vehicle installation and matching, and is also conducive to subsequent maintenance.
Equipped with Torque Converter5: The VT5 gearbox is equipped with a torque converter, which can make the power combination better when starting, and there is no "squeal" sound of ordinary CVT gearboxes, which improves the overall texture of the vehicle. Moreover, in high - altitude areas, the gearbox can still shift up and down actively, and the power performance is commendable.
Suitable ModelsDongfeng Fengguang 580 Pro1: This is the main model equipped with the VT5 gearbox. The Fengguang 580 Pro is a mid - size SUV, providing 5 - door 6 - seat or 7 - seat versions, with a front - wheel - drive form. Models such as the 2020 280TGDI CVT Yuling Edition, CVT Zhiling Edition, and CVT Pilot Edition are all equipped with this CVT gearbox.

At the same time, according to the relevant information, Geely Vision SUV, Vision X3, Southeast DX series, and other models also use Punch CVT gearboxes, and there may be a possibility of using the VT5 gearbox or a similar - type gearbox.
