Your assumptions on a CVT are correct Anders. Audi's new engine is the one
rated for the highest hp that I have seen so far. I haven't driven one to
tell you how it shifts, but basically, the gears are predetermined ratios on
the band (as it were). For this reason, they could have a 6-speed setup if
they so desired.  The Multitronic is a CVT and not  a high tech automatic.
