How long before we see DSG gearboxes in trucks?
Discussion
My daily drivers are newish Volvos with iShift.. They're a mix of 10L 450's and 13L 460's.
As good as the iShift is, best 'box I've used tbh. Changing up gear uphill causes a huge loss of momentum and it really had to dig deep to pull the next gear.
Same as changing down from top to 11/10...
Can't help but think that using DSG systems would have huge increases in MPG. Which is pretty much the biggest selling point of a fleet truck these days.
Wonder if they're currently in development? Surely only have to be a matter of time?
