If we break down these Automatic transmission installations, an interesting picture emerges. The biggest driver for change in transmission hardware design is the need to improve fuel economy to meet tightening global targets and consumer demand. In the light-duty market, we have seen the trend for more gears and light-weighting of conventional stepped automatic transmissions – although in the major markets these transmissions will begin to lose ground in the coming years due to the growing popularity of dual clutch and continuously variable transmissions. But these transmission designs are not being introduced uniformly across the globe – and amongst other factors, their popularity typically reflects the driving profile of each region. North America will retain a majority of stepped automatic transmissions, but we expect CVTs to grow in popularity here, mainly through their use in larger vehicles. In Japan and Korea, the majority of growth will be in hybrid transmissions. DCT is most popular in Europe and China, where the existing manual transmission manufacturing facilities lend themselves to easy modification, although CVTs will also gain ground in China. Each of these technologies presents opportunities for advanced and tailored lubricant technology. However, while enhanced fluid performance and lower viscosity capabilities help to deliver fuel economy benefits, we must not lose sight of the need for fluids to deliver improved durability and longer drain intervals.

The primary advantages of DCTs are acceleration and torque – making them ideal for sports applications. Their responsiveness means they are particularly appealing to users who in the past had preferred manual transmissions. (*) In these two vehicles, one has a DCT and the other a manual transmission. While they have the same fuel economy figures, the DCT has better overall performance. However, the efficiency of DCTs increases substantially with less powerful designs.

OEMs find CVT attractive because it is efficient, small, light and relatively lower cost to produce. The fuel efficiency of the latest CVT designs rivals that attained by high speed conventional automatics. But until now, CVTs have typically been coupled with lower torque engines, limiting their growth in some markets. Change is on the way though - with the latest designs able to handle torque levels of up to 400 Nm, CVTs will become more attractive in markets where consumers prefer larger vehicles.

Service fill demand slowly growing

AT9

Essential to ensure fluids will offer sufficient protection

More than any other transmission, a CVT relies on the fluid for its successful operation. As new CVTs with unique lubrication requirements are being designed, it is increasingly important that the transmission fluid is integrally built into the design of the CVT, so it is almost a component part of the hardware. The fluid needs to deliver high steel-on-steel friction to prevent belt slippage and minimise paper-on-steel friction to avoid shudder. Getting the balance between these two critical characteristics right, and controlling wear, oxidation and aeration is a tough challenge for formulators and presents opportunities for very advanced fluids. It also means that the use of Genuine OEM fluids is essential to ensure the CVT functions properly and is sufficiently protected. In most applications, these oils need to deliver extended protection, as most CVT units are fill-for-life. However, service fill CVT fluids are available in the market to provide choice for consumers, but it is critical to encourage consumers to use recognised brands backed by sound technology.

Advanced transmission technology is not the sole preserve of the light-duty market. As heavy-duty OEMs work to cut CO2 emissions and lower fuel and maintenance bills for their customers, automatic transmissions with more gears are becoming an increasingly good fit for this market. This presents a significant potential for growth - (*) while In North America over three quarters of large trucks and buses are already fully automatic, in the rest of the world most medium- and heavy-duty vehicles have manual transmissions. (*)OEMs are also looking to improve the efficiency of manual transmissions by adding more gears and by including intelligent systems to ensure the vehicle is in the most efficient gear at all times. We can be sure that in both light- and heavy-duty markets, the initiatives being taken to improve efficiency, reduce costs and maintain reliability will impact future transmission fluid formulations.

AT11

Transmission fluids are helping to improve fuel economy performance in both light and heavy-duty applications, with the fluids being real enablers for advanced transmission hardware. Fluid formulation is becoming increasingly complex, and the careful selection of base stock and additive components is essential to ensure fluids deliver the right balance of fuel economy and wear protection. As we have seen, the latest hardware including CVT and DCT is being adopted at different rates in the various regions. And, just as hardware solutions are being tailored to meet different requirements, fluids must also be formulated to suit each transmission type. In our view, the co-engineering of the lubricant and hardware is essential to ensure they deliver the maximum contribution to fuel economy performance.
