EFFICIENT DUAL CLUTCH TRANSMISSION AND ITS FURTHER DEVELOPMENT

The hybridization of the conventional powertrain is becoming essential in order to meet the ever more stringent homologation requirements for vehicles in terms of emissions and fuel consumption. As a kind of positive synergy effect, the “Boost” hybridization function inspires car drivers with a significant increase in the feeling of performance.

GETEC Getriebe Technik GmbH sees good potential in the consistent further development of the DCT and the new DHT solutions from Hybrid.

The basis is the downsizing of existing transmission hardware and the development of a modular hybrid system. The hybrid software, which is an extension of the existing software, as well as the in-depth system analysis are the key elements to achieve the development goals.

At the same time, growing market pressure and the need for cost optimization are the main drivers for shorter development times. In order to achieve this goal, GETEC is developing a modular concept for a transmission family with add-on solutions.
