Hi,
The need for gears is to provide variable torque (pulling capacity) required during travel. e.g you require high torque during hill climbing and low torque for a smooth road.To achieve this at your will only, gears have been built in cars/bikes.However, there are alternatives, such as variable diameter pulleys which can do this without gears.Novel arrangements such as multiple mini engines running in a car also can achieve this.We can choose the no. of engines to be connected to the wheel at our will thru a final coupler.

It is not possible to make a car without gears.
You will need gears of some kind to increase the torque at the wheels and reduce the speed of the engine.
If you are adamant of making a car with no gears at all the only way you can do it is having a high torque engine that runs at about 900 rpm maximum, which has a wheel fitted to the crankshaft directly!
That will be a strange kind of beast indeed.
Since even a simple bicycle has a gearing system made up of two sprockets of different diameters connected by a chain.

Centrifugal force cars. If a front wheel is out of balance, only a few ounces, the force of the weight can actually lift a cars front end off the road. So why not build a centrifugal generated Engine where the force is concentrated to one area. This would also make a hover craft or flying machine.

sounds like loss of compression, possibly worn piston rings. Drain the oil out and placed on a sparkling oil clear out, and replace the oil with Amtech Engine Restorer, you're able to purchase it on Ebay, it may help. Failing that inspect an replace recon engine. nonetheless it may basically be a case of you slowing down and leaving it in 2d or third for too long or no longer pressing the take carry of quickly sufficient while slowing. If it cuts out as quickly as you're taking your foot off the accelerator then it is loss of compression.

I have an Audi A6 with a CVT transmission. I get fully automatic use but with manual transmission economy !

Think "Wind Power"
real cars have real gears somewhere in them.
(engine, transmission, rear axle)
