The 2021 Volkswagen Sagitar 1.4T is matched with a DQ200 7-speed dry dual-clutch transmission. Definition of Dual-Clutch Transmission (DCT): The Dual-Clutch Transmission (DCT) differs from conventional automatic transmission systems. Based on manual transmissions yet belonging to the automatic transmission category, it combines the flexibility of manual transmissions with the comfort of automatic transmissions while providing uninterrupted power output. Advantages of Dual-Clutch Transmission: The gear shift time of a DCT is extremely short—faster than manual transmissions, taking less than 0.2 seconds.
