Explained basically it can change the gear ratio without changing gear. It stands for something like continuously variable transmission.

It sucks because it’s designed for economy, a performance CVT would be unfairly fast

Engineering Explained Do you think that the launch gear was also created due to the reliability issues associated with CVTs? Since most of the stress placed on a CVT occurs during acceleration from a stop, the gear would reduce stress and therefore reduce wear.
