The Golf Sportsvan is equipped with a dual-clutch transmission, specifically a 7-speed dry dual-clutch transmission. A dual-clutch transmission is a type of semi-automatic transmission with two sets of clutches, structurally similar to a manual transmission. It has two clutches responsible for shifting even or odd gears, significantly improving gear-shifting speed. The Golf Sportsvan is a model under the Volkswagen brand, with dimensions of 4351mm in length, 1807mm in width, and 1584mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2685mm. The vehicle is powered by three engine options: a 1.2-liter turbocharged engine, a 1.4-liter turbocharged engine, and a 1.6-liter naturally aspirated engine. The 1.6-liter naturally aspirated engine is paired with either a 5-speed manual transmission or a 6-speed automatic transmission, while the 1.2-liter and 1.4-liter turbocharged engines are matched with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
