Probably every transmission repair specialist was keen on LEGO constructions or at least enjoyed making some minor things with their hands. Here's the game taken to a new level of creativity!

Modern auto industry is full of sophisticated drivetrain technologies which are supposed to make your driving experience even more pleasant and trouble-free. Despite a great abundance of sophisticated technical solutions, it is highly likely that very few people know a transmission solution operating like a manual CVT.

Over recent years engineers developed a lot of gear shifting solutions for different car brands, which may seem a bit unusual for oldtime drivers. In this article we will review the most peculiar gear stick technologies and provide video materials related to these technologies.

Only few people know about transmission concepts which were popular 70-90 years ago. For men of today, these gearboxes may seem very unusual and weird, but even now some gearboxes that date back to those years are quite competitive in comparison with modern transmissions.

Nowadays Extroid CVTs are commonly known as “toroidal” due to the fact that the working surface of driving and driven discs in this transmission has the form of a torus. Extroid CVT is not a V-belt transmission, but a friction drive CVT.

Fuso Modernizes Its Training Center in the US

Mitsubishi Fuso has recently opened its modernized Training Center intended for extensive training of technicians, who will be specialized in diagnostics and repair services for all Fuso vehicles.



Classroom in New Jersey training center


Located in Logan Township, NJ, the reconstructed facility provides a top-quality practical training at an area of 8,000 sq. ft. for Fuso truck dealerships in North America. It’s one of two centers offering professional training for technicians working with Fuso vehicles. Thanks to this training facility, technicians of Fuso dealerships gain deep knowledge and practical skills in diagnostic and engine/transmission repair for all Fuso products. This training center offers several training programs, including comprehensive training for senior level technicians. It is also planned to adopt other types of classes from sales to warranty support.


According to representatives of Mitsubishi Fuso subsidiary in America, numerous researches from ATD association emphasize the significance of having highly-skilled repair specialists at a dealership center to enhance the quality of customer services. Therefore, Fuso spares no financial efforts to provide top-quality training programs and considers it absolutely necessary as the company does its best to expand Fuso’s product portfolio in North America.

Thanks to the modernization, now the training center has more classroom space, allowing organizing additional classes during the year. Training sessions are being improved by sophisticated audio/visual technologies. New technical capacities help to simulate operation of different car components during the training classes. Similar improvements will take place at Fuso’s 2-nd training academy in Las Vegas in the near future. All of these improvements are part of larger corporate modernization activities launched 2 years ago.
