Gearbox Type: 5-Speed Manual
The Eeco utilizes a 5-speed manual transmission with a cable-type gearshift mechanism for smoother transitions compared to older linkages. It follows a Rear-Wheel Drive (RWD) layout, which is rare in modern small cars but essential for the Eeco to maintain traction when fully loaded with passengers or cargo. The clutch is a single-plate dry friction type, designed for heavy-duty city stop-and-go traffic.
