Since developing a 3-speed RWD AT in 1972, AISIN AW has developed and commercialized a series of ATs that were leaders in their times. In 2006, we successfully commercialized the world's first 8-speed RWD AT.
In addition, AISIN AW became one of the first companies to incorporate environmental considerations into the product development process, not only for ATs but also for continuously variable transmissions (CVTs) and hybrid systems. We offer a full lineup of products for small- to full-sized cars, and automakers around the world utilize our products.

Medium Torque Capacity CVT (XB-20LN)
- Similar installation to conventional 4-speed automatic transmission
- Excellent shift response with low inertial torque converter
- 10 % improved fuel consumption at high speed, compared with 4-speed automatic transmissions due to improved hydraulic pressure control and wide gear ratios
Small Torque Capacity CVT (XA-12SD)
- Introducing several control function improvements and the improvement of transmission efficiency, contributed to the best fuel economy as 26.5 Km/L within Vitz class.
- Designing the casing based on the CAE analysis contributed the vastly reduction of the NVH.

RWD 2-motor Hybrid Transmission (HR-10)
- Achieves both higher vehicle performance and fuel efficiency suitable for luxury vehicles
- Development of the layout where a two-stage motor speed reduction device capable of selecting two reduction gear ratios, the high gear for high-speed range and the low gear for low-speed range, is combined with an output shaft of an electric motor
- Compact design applicable for RWD platform with compact motor

FWD 2-motor Hybrid System (HD-20)
- Compact transaxle containing two motors and two inverters for both traction and generation
- Higher output from the generator by adopting a booster and pressure rising control
- Low fuel consumption control by means of optimum engine operation and brake energy regeneration

FWD 2-Motor Hybrid Transmission (HF-20)
- Motor and generator are now more compact but produce greater output as a result of increased voltage and revolutions
- The introduction of reduction gears, which increase the range of torque the motor is able to draw on, produces greater drive power and enables seamless acceleration
- Incredible fuel efficiency has been achieved through optimal engine use and brake energy regeneration
