Why so much hate for the CVT?
I've had zero complaints about the CVT in the GS450h. The other day I went and drove a Infiniti Q50s hybrid along with a couple of others and was annoyed with the shifting of the gears. At this point I'd prefer a CVT. From everything I've read, this makes me in the tiny tiny minority?
I don't get the hate.

It's just far different compared to a conventional transmission. Not having gears shifting at first was odd, but as the year has progressed I also find myself preferring the cvt to a conventional transmission.
I have come to a point to understand that the "hate" for the cvt is due to poor experience with one, or simply no knowledge of it at all. I have driven some horrible cvt cars and I am happy to say the gs450h is not one of those. I think this is due to the planetary vs belt driven systems. I am no expert in the matter so..... So in short the hate for CVT is due to misunderstanding, or experience with a poor example.
