Gear ratio for Honda HR-V CVT Gearbox

Local Honda Malaysia website do not put the Honda CVT gearbox gear ratio. I used the USA Honda website specification for cross reference purpose.

From the US Honda website, the forward ratio is 0.408 to 2.526, and the final drive is 5.436.


As a comparison, the Toyota Altis CVTi-S 7-speed gearbox forward gear ratio is 0.396 to 2.480, and the final drive is 4.761.

Quote from Toyota press room article:
 The CVTi-S offers a forward gear ratio range of 0.396 to 2.480, which works well for acceleration, cruising speeds, and fuel-conscious driving with a 4.761 final drive ratio.  The new CVTi-S includes a transmission fluid warmer is used to help get fluid to optimal temperature faster.

I do not know how to use the said information for calculation yet, will figure it out and share later.
