The derivative of acceleration with respect to time is used to evaluate and ensure driving comfort during acceleration and deceleration. Frequent and rapid changes in acceleration means frequent and rapid deformation, which can lead to the destruction of the load. The article proposes to minimize the amount of acceleration due to the rational choice of transmission ratios in intermediate gears and the law of changing the engine torque. The use of continuously variable transmissions allows you to solve the problem by choosing a rational law for changing the gear ratio of the transmission. The method of selection at the stage of car design of the maximum effective engine power and transmission ratio in top gear is proposed, taking into account the improved formula for calculating the aerodynamic resistance to motion. The required laws of change in the efficiency of the torque and engine power have been determined. The use of a continuously variable transmission allows the engine to operate at a constant high-speed mode and provides control over the acceleration of the car by changing the fuel supply. It is determined that the engine power expended on the movement with the adjustment of the acceleration of the car will be less than with unregulated acceleration if the exponent at the speed of the car, obtained experimentally, is less than one.Keywords: car; comfort; continuously variable transmission; motor-transmission unit; power; overclocking; aerodynamic resistance; gear ratio
