First off , they explain what an apex is. Then, this:

“ The key to the Dynamic Shift CVT’s distinct performance feel is a gearset used as a “first” gear for start-off acceleration, before seamlessly handing off to the CVT’s pulley system.”

Looks like the ideal vehicle for Apex Redditors.

Bet they sell big bunches of them in the flattest places with the straightest roads.

The press release says the majority will be the “sporty” CVT that somehow is sporty because of a simulated first gear (?) and simulated gear s so I have no idea. Because most other companies think starting in a simulated second gear is sporty.

The CVT used in the Corolla actually has a physical fixed ratio first gear. It's effectively a two speed automatic transmission were second gear is a CVT. It eliminates the weird slippy feeling that CVTs have on take off.

The return of the Corolla S...

15 years on it’s still likely slower around a track than my ‘05 XRS.

Turbo the damn thing Toyota, time for this and the hatch to go against the Civic Si again.
