UTV manufacturers continue introducing advanced technology to maximize performance. The latest continuously variable transmission (CVT) technology features a durable steel belt that provides smoother, more predictable driving and improved torque and power delivery.
UTV owners are also seeking peak performance, so manufacturers like Polaris,* Can-Am,* Honda,* Kawasaki,* and Yamaha* continue to deliver advanced technology, including turbocharged engines for more power and dual-clutch (DCT) and continuously variable (CVT) transmissions for smoother power delivery.
Drawbacks to steel-belted CVTs include metal-on-metal friction between the belt and pulleys that can increase heat and wear. Additionally, the extreme pressure and high torque generated by CVTs can mechanically shear oils, reducing their viscosity and ability to protect against wear. Many UTV owners also add accessories to their UTVs and run them heavily loaded, which increases heat and stress on the transmission. CVTs with high stress and degraded fluid are more prone to shudder or lurching during acceleration and deceleration, especially at low speeds.
UTV owners demand peak performance, but also want to reduce the risk, hassle and cost of breakdowns. They want confidence, security and peace of mind, knowing their UTV is protected when performing demanding chores and tackling tough terrain.
To address the challenges of advanced vehicle technology, AMSOIL continues to lead the market in developing application-specific lubricants. Our new AMSOIL 100% Synthetic ATV/UTV Continuously Variable Transmission Fluid (AUCVT) is engineered to ensure smooth, consistent driving, prevent shudder and help extend CVT life. We’ve tested and proven its superior anti-wear protection in the new Polaris* Ranger* XD 1500 under heavily loaded, high-temperature operation, making it the first, best and only alternative to the manufacturer-branded CVT fluid.
Engineered to maximize CVT performance and efficiency while protecting against wear during heavy loads, high-temperature operation, so you can confidently and safely push your Polaris* STEELDRIVE* CVT transmissions as designed. We’ve already tested and proven its superior protection and performance in the new Polaris RANGER XD 1500 STEELDRIVE* CVT transmission under heavily loaded, high-temperature operation, making it the first, best and only alternative to the manufacturer-branded CVT fluid.
AMSOIL Synthetic ATV/UTV CVT Fluid is specifically formulated to help eliminate belt-slip shudder and deliver smooth, quiet operation, optimum efficiency and extended transmission life in hard-working and high-performance UTVs. Its superior shear stability withstands extreme pressure to deliver continuous protection against wear on heavily loaded, high-torque steel-belted CVTs. It also resists breakdown under extreme heat for cleaner and cooler operation, so owners can comfortably and confidently push their machines to the limit.
