Volkswagen’s dual-clutch gearbox is produced with core components provided by Germany’s LUK.
The gearbox obviously still has a lot of room for improvement, so Volkswagen is interested in dual-clutch. The dual-clutch transmission has the highest transmission efficiency among all automatic transmission types and is very close to a manual transmission. This means that every milliliter of gasoline consumed by the engine is converted into the power of the car to the maximum extent.
Every improvement in the transmission efficiency of the powertrain means that a few grams of carbon dioxide may be emitted per 100 kilometers. DQ200 is Volkswagen's 7-speed dry dual-clutch transmission. The core components are provided by LuK, a subsidiary of Germany's SChaeffler (Scheffler Group), and are applied to the front transverse platform.
