9T50

The 9-speed automatic transmission Hydra-Matic 9T50 for front-wheel drive vehicles was designed by GM and was officially showcased in December 2016. This transmission was intended to replace its 6-speed predecessor. According to GM engineers, the 9T50 transmission allows striking a balance between high dynamic parameters and fuel economy. The size of this transmission is the same as the size of its 6-speed predecessor, but the Hydra-Matic 9T50 also supports start/stop technology and has a new torque converter.
