The Rubicon's unique, Hondamatic transmission is a continuously variable design that does the shifting for you—or, at your option, lets you choose powertrain ratios with the flick of a thumb. The Rubicon's torque-tuned engine powers a sophisticated variable-ratio hydraulic pump, delivering power to the wheels in a seamless drive that you'll appreciate from the first mile on. It's a perfect example of how Honda's human engineering gives you just what you want—exactly the way you want it.
