Today, there are various types of transmissions available for purchase. The two most popular options are manual and automatic.

Manual transmissions allow drivers to select their desired gear set by pressing on the gear stick. Automatic transmissions work differently; with an automated clutch disengagement occurs from the current gear set and a new one is selected automatically.

A continuously variable transmission (CVT) is another type of transmission. Instead of having gear sets, CVTs feature driven and driven pulleys that press together when the car moves.
