Is the Volkswagen Tayron's transmission dry or wet?
1 Answers
The Volkswagen Tayron comes in two engine displacements: 1.4L and 2.0L. The 1.4L version is equipped with a dry dual-clutch transmission, while the 2.0L version uses a wet dual-clutch transmission. A dual-clutch transmission (DCT) features two sets of clutches connected to two input shafts—one controls the odd-numbered gears, and the other manages the even-numbered gears. This design significantly reduces shift times, improves efficiency, and enhances shift comfort. As a midsize SUV from Volkswagen, the Tayron is built on the MQB A2 platform, with body dimensions measuring 4,595 mm in length, 1,860 mm in width, and 1,660 mm in height.
