What does double clutch mean？

In the field of automobile technology, powershift (DCT) is an innovative transmission system, which combines the advantages of manual and automatic transmission.

Different from the traditional automatic transmission, the dual clutch realizes seamless power conversion and gear shifting through two independent clutches, thus providing a smoother driving experience.

Principle analysis: each clutch controls different gears, for example, one clutch is responsible for gears 1, 3 and 5, and the other clutch is responsible for gears 2, 4 and 6, and reverse gears. This design makes it unnecessary to completely interrupt power transmission when shifting gears, thus reducing the sense of frustration when shifting gears. The application of dual clutch technology allows drivers to enjoy the accuracy of manual transmission and the convenience of automatic transmission.

In the market, powershift is made by many well-known brands, such as BYD in China, Borg Warner in the United States, and international giants such as Ford, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Fiat, Getrag and ZF. These enterprises have invested a lot of resources in the research and development and application of DCT technology to improve vehicle performance and driving experience.

Generally speaking, powershift is an efficient and advanced automobile transmission system, which brings unprecedented driving experience to drivers with its excellent performance and fast shift response. When choosing a vehicle, powershift is undoubtedly an important option to improve driving pleasure and efficiency.
