This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

eCVTs are good, yes (I miss having one so much), just don't buy a Ford C-Max if you want one.
Very quick for a Hybrid (only 200Hp, but the transmission makes it feel so much faster), luxurious interior with panaromac sunroof, but 75% of their transmissions will fail by 100K miles due to a faulty bearing design.
Traded mine in for a Genesis Coupe 3.8L 6MT at a stealership once I found out mine was dying @106K. I originally paid $7500 for the car and got $6500 for the trade in; even with the purchase price of the Genesis ($12k) it was still cheaper than getting the C-Max fixed.
That said, I can't wait to try another eCVT again. And this is coming from someone who prefers to drive stick.
I have a RAV4 Hybrid and it’s the nicest ride ever got a gas car. And yeah the e-CVT is great
