How come I do not feel my CVT car change any gear at all
I have 2020 Toyota Corolla with CVT but I absolutely do not feel it's automatic transmission change gears on its own.
Do I need repair from dealer since it's still under warranty.
I can't even tell if rpm is even changing. Though it runs fine and no issues it just feels strange compared to the 6 speed a/t I had in the past.

Because a CVT vehicle has no gears. That's the whole point of CVT. It's "continuously variable transmission" (as opposed to "multiple-gear-ratio transmission). Typically a CVT uses a belt of some type (think: very tough fan belt) with some sort of continuously-variable-ratio pully system. Adjusting the accelerator adjusts the ratio of the pullies, increasing or decreasing the speed and (inversely) torque of the engine.
