What's the Difference Between Tiptronic and Dual-Clutch Transmission?
1 Answers
The differences between Tiptronic and dual-clutch transmission are: 1. In terms of fuel economy: Dual-clutch transmission has better fuel efficiency than Tiptronic. Because the dual-clutch transmission is equivalent to two automatic clutches, it is generally very fuel-efficient, while Tiptronic combines manual and automatic clutches and leans more towards automatic transmission. 2. For power performance: The dual-clutch transmission is essentially a new type of transmission that not only inherits the high transmission efficiency of manual transmissions but also shifts faster than manual transmissions, so it performs better in terms of power. 3. In terms of cost: Tiptronic is slightly cheaper. Tiptronic is generally used in some mid-to-high-end cars with relatively fast shifting, while dual-clutch transmissions are usually used in some high-end models and sports cars, with very expensive components.
