Two of my cars have CVTs (continuously variable transmissions). If you're not used to it, it may seem a little wacky to have your tachometer needle stay rock solid on 3500 rpm and the car accelerating briskly, all the while, from entrance ramp speed up past highway speed. You might even think that it doesn't matter what your engine's curve looks like if it's bolted up to a CVT.
