The most performing DSG gearbox in its most evolved form: the Volkswagen group, with the updated version for the MQB platform of the DQ500, affirms its ability in the field of dual-clutch automatic transmissions. Installed on Audi and Volkswagen branded vehicles with 2.0 diesel/gasoline and 2.5 gasoline engines.
The DQ500 MQB equips transverse engines with front and all-wheel drive and seven gears. The robust and at the same time refined mechanics of the DQ500 MQB can withstand a high maximum torque value of 600Nm and thanks to two oil bath clutches coupled with a primary and secondary shaft that manage even and odd gears.
Manufacturers install this transmission on the iconic 5-cylinder Audi “RS” on the MQB platform to emphasize reliability and sportiness. The modification of parameters allows a reduction in time and shift regimes, exponentially increasing the performance and fluidity of gear changes.
