Ten years ago I had a Audi A4 with diesel engine and e-CVT in Germany. Was pretty smooth, no mayor difference in fuel consumption to other equivalent cars. The CVT was a little hacksaw to the fluids. So they had to change three times in the three years I had the car.
Pros: pretty smooth, good fuel consumption
Cons: high fluid consumption
Vehicle:
Audi A4
For my Fords fusions, its the cvt transmissions. Weak af under heavy acceleration.
Cons: weak under heavy acceleration

Ford Fusion
I had a Fuckus with the DCT. That was innovation done on the cheap. IT was broken more than it was running mostly because Ford never had the parts in stock.
Cons: poor reliability, frequent breakdowns, parts unavailable
Vehicle:
Ford Focus
ever since about 80k miles I have to reset the car\u2019s computer every few months because the CVT transmission starts making rough \u201cshifts.\u201d
Cons: rough shifts
Vehicle:
Subaru Outback
Mileage: 128747 km
Wife has a 2016 or 17 versa sv. Nearing 100k miles. We've changed the cvt fluid twice and it still functions. That being said I don't trust it. You can feel the transmission get hot in stop and go traffic. It starts to lurch and feels like drivetrain lash. I would bet money that the transmission doesn't make it to 200k even with 2-3 more expensive oem fluid changes.
Cons: gets hot, lurches, drivetrain lash, unreliable
Vehicle:
Nissan
Mileage: 160934 km
