The INVECS-II Electronically Controlled Automatic Transaxles for FWD Passenger Cars 960429
Mitsubishi Motors has developed the INVECS-H 4-speed (F4A4 model) and 5-speed (F5A5 model) automatic transaxles with electronic control for FWD passenger cars
These transaxles feature simplified construction and lighter weight by employing clutch-to-clutch shifting, where the release clutch is directly changed over to the apply clutch during shifting
Moreover, an innovative shift-schedule control has been incorporated in the transaxles so that the gear selection can be properly achieved in response to driving conditions and driving habits of individual drivers
In addition, the transaxles have an additional feature of “SPORTY MODE”, in which the driver can choose a dynamic drive feel as is available in a manual transmission vehicle
