Is the Volkswagen Tharu's transmission dry or wet?
1 Answers
The 1.4T version of the Volkswagen Tharu uses a dry dual-clutch transmission, while the 2.0T version employs a wet dual-clutch transmission. The difference between dry and wet dual-clutch transmissions: The clutch plates in a dry dual-clutch transmission are not immersed in transmission oil, whereas those in a wet dual-clutch transmission are. Dry dual-clutch transmissions shift faster but have poorer heat dissipation and stability; wet dual-clutch transmissions offer better heat dissipation and stability but are not as quick in shifting as dry ones. The interior of the Volkswagen Tharu features a horizontal design, with IMD material panels enhancing its premium feel. Large panels integrate the instrument cluster, display screen, and air vents into a unified design.
