What is the Difference Between Dual Clutch and Tiptronic?
1 Answers
Tiptronic combines manual and automatic clutches, leaning more towards automatic transmission, making driving relatively easier, but overall fuel economy is poor. A dual-clutch transmission is equivalent to two automatic clutches, making it generally very fuel-efficient with good fuel economy. Tiptronic has a slower overall response speed, and due to engine protection considerations, its power performance is relatively inferior. Below is more information about dual-clutch transmissions: 1. Unlike conventional automatic transmission systems, it belongs to both manual and automatic transmissions, offering not only the flexibility of a manual transmission and the comfort of an automatic transmission but also uninterrupted power output. 2. Dual-clutch transmissions are generally used in some high-end models and sports cars, with very expensive components and higher costs.
