Abstract: A vehicle includes a frame assembly, an engine mounted on the frame assembly, and a continuous variable transmission connected to the engine. The continuous variable transmission includes a housing including an air intake duct and an exhaust duct, a drive shaft disposed in the housing, a drive pulley including at least one sheave disposed on the drive shaft, a driven shaft disposed in the housing and spaced from the drive shaft, a driven pulley including at least one sheave disposed on the driven shaft, and a fan disposed on the driven shaft. The fan is disposed between an inner surface of the housing and the driven pulley so as to be spaced from the driven pulley. The air intake duct defines an opening in the housing for providing air from outside the housing into the housing, and the air intake duct is axially aligned with the driven shaft and the fan disposed thereon, such that the air flows directly into the fan and is directed to the driven pulley.
