When we go up steep hills I have found that if you can slow down and let the cvt down shift a bit and hold a lower rpm and when you are almost to the top open up the throttle.

If you hit the hill at max speed you cvt is in higher ratio and will bog down. Try to go half throttle and lower rpms. This works for me when we climb steep hills I come to almost a stop and go slow and steady and make it almost every time.
