Allison Automatic transmissions incorporate a hydraulic torque converter that connects the engine to the transmission via a planetary gear set. This torque converter facilitates seamless power transfer during gear changes, providing uninterrupted, continuous power shifts.

Automated Manual Transmissions (AMTs) use a standard manual gearbox

The latter often results in torque losses and interruptions during gear shifts, adversely impacting vehicle performance. Allison’s fully automatic transmissions provide superior performance, reduce maintenance and provide drivers with greater control so they can concentrate on the task at hand.
