The transmission largely determines the efficiency of the drive and the driving quality, even if the engine power parameters are strong, without a good transmission to match, it is useless. ❖ Therefore, when buying a car, you can not worry too much about the engine parameters, but you absolutely can not ignore the importance of the transmission.
Master Bong first introduces the advantages and disadvantages of the dual clutch transmission. /01/ Advantages of double clutch Vehicles equipped with double clutch is divided into two clutches, respectively, control the vehicle's odd and even gears, the use of the vehicle, hanging into a gear, the corresponding next gear will automatically be ready to wait for the owner to refueling can be faster to switch the vehicle gear. ❖ Dual-clutch transmission and turbocharged engine is the golden combination of vehicle configuration, equipped with dual-clutch transmission vehicles in the power is also very abundant, compared to other types of transmission to be much better. /02/ Disadvantages of Dual Clutch The most common fault of vehicles equipped with dual clutch transmission is high temperature of the clutch plate, especially when driving on congested roads, the vehicle frequently shifts gears, which makes the clutch plate temperature too high, and it is easy to damage the clutch of the vehicle for a long time. ❖ This type of transmission shifts gears quickly, and the driver will feel an obvious sense of stutter when the vehicle is shifting gears at high speeds. /03/ Dual Clutch VS CVT First let's talk about the dual clutch transmission that has become more popular in recent years, as the name suggests it has two clutches. One of them is responsible for odd gears and the other clutch is responsible for even gears. Compared to other gearboxes, dual-clutch has the advantages of fast shifting, very smooth shifting, and fuel saving, which is why major automakers are developing dual-clutch gearboxes even if it is difficult to do so. ❖ Dual-clutch transmission is divided into wet dual-clutch and dry dual-clutch, the structure and shifting principle of these two are the same, the difference lies in the way the clutch heat dissipation. Dry dual clutch relies on air flow to take away heat, while wet dual clutch coaxial two clutches are immersed in the oil chamber, relying on ATF circulation to take away heat, so it is more stable to use. Moreover, wet double clutches have a long service life and generally do not fail. ❖ Although it has many advantages, it is not suitable for novice drivers. Because it is very difficult to operate, especially when encountering traffic jams, it is difficult for novices to maneuver well, and rear-end accidents can occur if they are not careful. ❖ Since dual clutch is not suitable for novice drivers, is CVT transmission suitable for novice drivers?CVT transmission is also known as Continuously Variable Transmission. Since CVT transmission has no fixed gears, the power output is continuous and linear when the vehicle accelerates, so it is very smooth in the driving process. Especially in the city stop-and-go road conditions, the comfort level is very high, which is very suitable for novice drivers to drive. ❖ Moreover, the CVT transmission costs less and there are more models to choose from. However, the CVT transmission has poor acceleration and lacks a certain amount of driving fun, so novice drivers who like to pursue driving excitement must think carefully. ❖ Overall, dual clutch and cvt transmission have their own advantages and disadvantages, after all, if any kind of transmission is all advantages, then it has long been fully occupied the market. Therefore, when buying a car, there is no need to treat the dual-clutch model as a beast, and choose according to the above description.
