What does DCT mean?
1 Answers
DCT stands for Dual Clutch Transmission. A dual clutch transmission is a relatively simple automatic transmission. It is a product developed based on manual transmissions, featuring two sets of clutches inside—one controls the odd-numbered gears, and the other controls the even-numbered gears. Additional relevant information is as follows: 1. Dual clutch transmissions offer fast gear shifting and high transmission efficiency. 2. There are two types of dual clutch transmissions: dry and wet. 3. In a dry dual clutch transmission, the clutch plates are not immersed in transmission oil, whereas in a wet dual clutch transmission, the clutch plates are immersed in transmission oil.
