The 6-speed Direct-Shift Gearbox 02E
Following its successful, initial launch in the Golf and Touran, the Direct-Shift Gearbox is now also being fitted in
the Golf Plus.
The Direct-Shift Gearbox combines the advantages of
a manual gearbox:
- High efficiency
= low fuel comnsumption and
- Sportiness
= short shift times
with the advantages of an automatic gearbox:
- High comfort
= no manual clutch actuation or shifting
Thanks to its design, it meets both the requirements of
sporty drivers and also the comfort requirements of
drivers who prefer automatic gearboxes.
Special characteristics
- Six forward gears and one reverse gear,
- Standard and sports gearbox programmes,
- Tiptronic selector level and steering wheel switches,
- Mechatronics,
- Hill-holder function,
- Creep control,
- Pressure oil filter and oil cooler
mounted on the gearbox,
- Maximum torque 350 Nm.
The design and function of the selector lever and
ignition key removal lock correspond to those
in the Golf.
