What is the difference between AMT and CVT

AMT is like your normal gearbox, which a machine is operating at fixed speeds/rpms (you will feel gear changes and a slight jerk). whereas CVT (continuously variable transmission), is a shiftless , single-speed transmission. in simple ways there are no gears and you wont feel any shift, it will be a continuous velocity e.g. like your activa, or any other gearless scooters. On the other hand AMT is easy and not so costly in terms of maintenance, however CVTs are costly when repairs. FE is almost equal in both cases, nothing much difference.

In swift we get amt or as they call autogearshift(ags) it's not a continuous variable transmission(Cvt) as in a polo..which is way by superior...but better than many AMTs..no CVT in a swift ...

AMT means automated manual transmission and CVT means continues variable transmission In AMT you can drive in auto mode and manaul mode but in CVT only Automatic mot manual transmission

Well CVT can be compared with a variable induction motor as an alternative comparison towards steplesslly contolled variable drive motor. It can be with or without planetary drive reduction gearbox whereby the pinion has the main Power transmission from the engine direct drive

I concur with what Deven has said!
