Can JDM Cars Be Automatic?

日本国内市场(简短的JDM)汽车继续捕捉世界各地许多买家的心灵和思想。如果你不确定JDM意味着什么阅读我们在此主题的文章.

虽然日本汽车制造商长期以来享有建造可靠,高品质的汽车和出口产品,但也有一个论点,日本基本上为国内市场储备了最佳汽车。

As such, JDM cars have become increasingly popular over the years.

团队在新Zealan在车库的梦想生活d, where (thanks to a few different quirks, such as sharing the same side of the road) there are many imported JDM cars on the road. In fact, buying a “Japanese import” is a rite of passage for many New Zealanders. Learn more on our article about如何从日本进口汽车.

我们大大长大地曝光了JDM汽车,并一直对他们感兴趣。

我们看到的一个问题是jdm汽车是否可以自动。

Most car enthusiasts tend to think of JDM cars as being things like the日产天际线R34 GT-Ror the本田Integra类型R; high performance cars with manual gear boxes.

但是如果您愿意让汽车更换齿轮本身呢?

是否存在自动JDM汽车?

是的,有许多自动JDM汽车已建成并继续构建。

虽然我们在高性能手册方面往往思考JDM汽车,但有许多伟大的自动JDM汽车示例。

There are JDM cars that were produced solely as automatics, as well as models that could be had in either manual or auto.

What Are The Best Automatic JDM Cars?

While there are many examples we could pick from, here are some of the best automatic JDM cars in our opinion (please note that this is not an exhaustive list, and some of these cars e.g. the Honda Legend were available domestically in re-badged versions as well).

One day we would love to do a more exhaustive list, but for now the following will suffice:

丰田追逐者

The Toyota Chaser is a very desirable mid-size “performance/luxury” saloon, particularly the models sold in the 1990s.

While the Chaser was available with a 5 speed manual, many examples come with a 4 speed automatic – including those powered by the legendary 1JZ-GTE from the MK3 Toyota Supra:

Toyota Aristo

If you thought the Toyota Chaser sounded good, wait until you hear about the Toyota Aristo.

Basically a four door Supra (with an automatic gearbox)

作为美国的雷克萨斯GS提供,幸运的日本买家可以将他们的aristo与2jz-gte发动机一起着名MK4丰田同上.

This model was known as the Aristo V300 Vertex or sometimes the Aristo Twin Vertex, and came exclusively with an automatic gearbox (it isn’t uncommon these days however to see modified versions of the Twin Vertex using a manual gearbox from the Supra, to create a four door Supra “hybrid”).

If you’ve read our article onwhy the Toyota Supra is so expensive- 或者我们Mk4 Toyota Supra buyer’s guide– then you’ll know that you need deep, deep pockets to buy one of these Japanese legends.

The Aristo offers a pathway to 2JZ-GTE ownership for vastly less money, and with greater practicality. What’s not to like?

Toyota Crown (Athlete/Royal/Majesta)

丰田皇冠是一款旗舰系列奢侈品轿车 - 我们实际上已经生产了丰田皇冠买方的指南,您可以在这里阅读。

One of the editors of this site recently test drove a Toyota Crown Royal and was incredibly impressed by the build quality and overall “feel” of the car.

信贷:丰田

关于丰田皇冠S180系列有趣的是,它们基本上与普通(在美国)雷克萨斯汽车相同。皇冠运动员是雷克萨斯·斯坦斯,皇家皇家是一个is300,牧师是一个ls460)。

与许多JDM模型一样,皇冠已经存在于许多世代。甚至还有一个非常酷的涡轮冠运动员马车:

Honda Legend

The Honda Legend is more commonly known in the United States as the Acura Legend/RL/RLX.

Available over several distinct generations, it is the fourth generation Legend that we feel represents some of the best value for money used motoring on the market today.

第四代传奇附带一个名为“超级处理所有轮子驱动器”(SH-AWD)的系统,该系统在CNET.com年度赢得了许多奖项 - 包括来自CNET.COM的2005年技术汽车。

We were a bit reticent to include the Legend on this list as it’s not a strict JDM car, but at least where we are from the majority of examples that are available for sale are imported Japanese market examples.

Nissan Stagea

There isn’t much cooler than a fast wagon (on a side note, how sad is it that station wagons have fallen out of favour compared to SUVs and crossovers) and the Nissan Stagea is just about the coolest fast wagon to come from the land of the rising sun.

有许多美味的发动机选择 - 最令人震惊的日产地平线GT-R的RB26DETT - 这可能是有史以来最理想的快车车辆之一。

While the absolute top spec/performance models were only available in manual (particularly the 260RS) there were a number of impressive options that featured an automatic gearbox.

The second generation Stagea was exclusively with an automatic gearbox (apart from the insanely rare Autech Axis 350S that was only produced for a couple of years). This generation Stagea made use of Nissans VQ series of V6 engines.

Mazda Sentia

While the Sentia has never been considered in the same league as some of the other automatic JDM cars on this list, it was still an impressive luxury/VIP cruiser car in its time – and if you can find one second hand, you will almost certainly score an incredible bargain (just beware that parts availability is a bit challenging these days).

One of the editors of this site had two Sentias at various times; one from each generation. In particular, the second generation Sentia was an excellent long-distance mile muncher, with plenty of get up and go from the 3.0 V6 engine.

Unfortunately, the editor’s Sentia met an untimely end when a mechanic got the timing wrong doing a cambelt change, resulting in the destruction of the engine.

结论 - JDM汽车可以自动吗?

是的,JDM汽车完全可以自动进入。在本文中,我们提供了几个伟大的自动JDM汽车的例子,如丰田皇冠运动员或丰田追逐者。

As you can see, many of the top automatic JDM cars are luxury cruisers/VIP-type cars.
