Is the Envision's dual-clutch transmission dry or wet?
1 Answers
The Envision's dual-clutch transmission is dry-type. In a dry dual-clutch system, the clutch plates are in direct contact with the engine flywheel, whereas in a wet dual-clutch system, the clutch plates are immersed in transmission fluid. The clutch, located between the engine and the transmission, acts as a switch for power transfer between the two. Its primary functions are to ensure smooth vehicle starts, reduce impact loads on transmission gears during gear shifts, and prevent drivetrain overload. The Envision is positioned as a midsize SUV. In terms of exterior features, it comes equipped with an intelligent air shutter grille, aluminum roof rails, chrome dual exhaust pipes, and multi-function exterior mirrors. Regarding body dimensions, the Envision measures 4686mm in length, 1839mm in width, and 1660mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2750mm.
