2 Answers
The Great Wall VV7 is equipped with a self-developed 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission, which delivers good performance in terms of handling and fuel economy. The WEY VV7 is the first model under the WEY brand of Great Wall, officially launched at the 2017 Shanghai Auto Show, and it comes with a 2.0T turbocharged engine. Here is some information about the Great Wall VV7: 1. As a premium brand under Great Wall, WEY introduced its VV7 in 2017, targeting the urban high-end SUV segment. With its unique design concept, it indeed led the trend of domestic brands in the high-end SUV market and received high praise from consumers after its launch, resulting in strong sales. 2. Great Wall VV7 transmission: The transmission is paired with a 2.0T turbocharged engine. In terms of the drivetrain, it is matched with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission, offering good performance in handling and fuel economy. If you want a more spirited drive, switching to sport mode will make its character much more dynamic. The power delivery is steady during acceleration and mid-range driving, and the throttle tuning is relatively smooth and not overly aggressive.
The Great Wall VV7 uses a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission (commonly known as Great Wall 7DCT), which is independently developed and produced by Great Wall. I drove this car for several months, and the transmission pairs well with the VV7's 2.0T engine, delivering quick starts, smooth gear shifts, and direct power output. However, there is occasional jerkiness in city traffic, especially when shifting to lower gears, somewhat similar to driving a Volkswagen DSG. Maintenance recommendations suggest changing the dedicated transmission fluid every 50,000 kilometers, which is cost-effective and durable. As a fan of domestic brands, I believe Great Wall has put significant effort into technological investment. This self-produced transmission is quite reliable, much more economical than some imported brands, and trustworthy for daily driving with no major issues.
