What is DCT and how it works?
A DCT works by using two clutches instead of one, and both are computer controlled, so there's no need for a clutch pedal. The dual clutch transmission operates via several in-built computers. These computers eliminate the need for the driver to manually change gears and the entire process is automated.
What is the point of DCT?
The purpose behind a DCT is to reduce the gap between gear shifts to a minimum, with the benefits being improved performance and fuel efficiency.
What is DCT technology?
A dual-clutch transmission (DCT) (sometimes referred to as a twin-clutch transmission) is a type of multi-speed vehicle transmission system, that uses two separate clutches for odd and even gear sets.
Why is DCT so good?
Increased Speed:
Manual drivers can take up to a full second to shift gears due to time wasted using the clutch pedal. The speed DCT allows to change gears is approximately 1/10th of a second—faster shifting, faster acceleration, more incredible speeds – the perfect recipe for high-performance vehicles.
