Is a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission a manual-automatic transmission?
1 Answers
7-speed dual-clutch is a manual-automatic transmission. The 7-speed dual-clutch is based on a manual transmission rather than an automatic transmission, but it is an automatic transmission. A dual-clutch must be an automatic transmission, so the 7-speed dual-clutch is first an automatic transmission and then also a manual-automatic transmission. Here is some relevant information about the 7-speed dual-clutch: 1. Due to the fast gear shifting speed, small size and weight, and low energy consumption of the dual-clutch transmission, some performance cars use dual-clutch transmissions. However, if you want to experience the car's launch control, do not press the brake and accelerator pedals simultaneously for too long. You need to quickly release the brake pedal because the clutch generates a lot of heat at the moment of engagement, and the vehicle must start quickly to allow the clutch to fully engage. 2. When the driver presses both the accelerator and brake pedals simultaneously, the RPM rises, and the clutch moves into the preparatory position and attempts to engage. If the transmission detects that the vehicle has not started, the designed protection program will reduce the RPM to a lower value to protect the transmission until the brake pedal is released. 3. The dual-clutch transmission does not have a torque converter. If this is done, the clutch will slip, overheat, and cause unnecessary wear. The clutch only disengages when the brake pedal is pressed.
