The Multitronic system uses a link-plate chain drive, [2] an oil-cooled multi-plate clutch [2] (initially of six parts, [2] later of seven to enable it to cope better with the high torque outputs of larger turbodiesel engines), and complex electronics, to overcome the traditional shortcomings of CVTs, [2] and allow a CVT transmission to be ...
A direct-shift gearbox (DSG, German: Direktschaltgetriebe [1]) [2] [3] is an electronically controlled, dual-clutch, [2] multiple-shaft, automatic gearbox, in either a transaxle or traditional transmission layout (depending on engine/drive configuration), with automated clutch operation, and with fully-automatic [2] or semi-manual gear selection.
Manual control of the multi-plate clutch systems via a lever behind the steering wheel is used to launch the cars. DTM currently uses a Hewland DTT-200 6-speed sequential transmission with steering-wheel-mounted shift paddles, which was introduced for the 2012 season with the new rule change.

Hele-Shaw clutch, sectioned A single pair of plates of the Hele Shaw clutch Section through a stack of plates The Hele-Shaw clutch was an early form of multi-plate wet clutch , in use around 1900. It was named after its inventor, Professor Henry Selby Hele-Shaw , who was noted for his work in viscosity and flows through small gaps between ...
The 1996 sixth-generation Honda Civic introduced a pulley-based Honda Multi Matic (HMM) CVT which included a multi-plate clutch, not a torque converter, to prevent idle creep. [41] Use of CVTs then spread in the following years to models including the 1998 Nissan Cube, 1999 Rover 25 and 1999 Audi A6. [42]
The Subaru WRX STI exclusively uses the Multi-mode Driver Control Centre Differential (DCCD) AWD system, it uses a torque sensing mechanical limited slip differential (LSD) with an electronic LSD to distribute torque with a 41% front and 59% rear split. Multi-mode DCCD AWD is able to operate in automatic mode or manual mode, where the driver is ...
