Adopting a CVT transmission, instead of a traditional mechanical transmision, many advantages can be obtained, in relation to a better use of the engine.

The advantage consists in the possibility that the engine always works at its maximum efficiency/torque speed.

The most interesting applications are the following:

- Wind generators
- Busses
- Trucks
- Hybrid vehicles
- Outboard marine engines
- Agricultural machinery

In particular, Warko has already been studied for applications in the earth-moving machinery and building fields. As for the latter, it can substitute the current hydraulic transmissions, for a wider variation range (1:1 – 1:9), and for a sensitively higher efficiency compared with the present-day solutions (95% vs 75%).
