Is paddle shifting sequential?
Most racing cars also use a sequential transmission now (via a sequential shift lever, with a mechanical linkage, or electronic paddle-shifters), rather than the old H-pattern stick shift, beginning with the paddle-shifted Williams FW14 Formula One car in 1991, which used a sequential drum-rotation mechanism.

Does downshifting hurt a CVT?
You’re fine to downshift even with a CVT. Don’t overcompensate and drop it too low, but that said it’s likely managed by the computer that you can’t do catastrophic shifts, as it’s all drive by wire, so if the computer says no to a downshift to 2 while doing 75, then it will obey the computer and not your input.

Why do CVT cars have paddle shifters?
Automatic. Both traditional automatics and cars with continuously variable transmissions (CVTs) use paddle shifters to offer the driver more control over the car. These are often paired with specific ECU programming to ensure the driver doesn’t damage the car’s transmission with aggressive or abusive shifting.
