A dual-clutch transmission is a specific type of Automated Manual Transmission (AMT), one which uses two clutches to ‘preload’ the next gear before shifting. Dual-clutch transmissions (DCTs) are designed to combine the performance benefits associated with manual transmissions with the smooth transitions and ease-of-use that automatic transmissions are known for. The benefits of the DCT system typically include faster transmission, lower power loss, and greater fuel economy compared to other transmission types.
