DSG on Volkswagen is the proprietary name for Volkswagen's dual-clutch technology. The DSG dual-clutch transmission originated from motorsport, with early applications in the Porsche 962C in the early 1980s and the Audi Sport Quattro S1 RC in 1985. Due to issues such as durability, it took over a decade of improvements before it was truly applied to regular mass-produced vehicles. The literal meaning of DSG in Chinese is "Direct Shift Gearbox," which differs from conventional semi-automatic transmission systems. It is based on a manual transmission rather than an automatic transmission, making it also a member of AMT (Automated Manual Transmission).
