What's the Difference Between Dual Clutch and Automatic Transmission?
1 Answers
The differences between dual clutch and automatic transmission are as follows: 1. Different Principles Automatic transmission uses a computer to control hydraulic oil to push pistons for gear shifting based on throttle size, vehicle speed, and throttle opening; dual clutch is equipped with two clutches, one controlling gears 1, 3, and 5, and the other controlling gears 2, 4, and 6. 2. Different Operation Methods Automatic transmission does not require the driver to manually shift gears, as the vehicle automatically selects the appropriate gear based on driving speed and traffic conditions; dual clutch combines manual and automatic gear shifting, allowing the driver to either just press the accelerator for automatic shifting or manually change gears.
