As mentioned SSG supplier, Oerlikon Graziano, this is a new standard for refinement and durability Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT). McLaren MP4-12C decided to apply the SSG system.

"McLaren has a great understanding of the brand and type of car that should be made. This is reflected in the chosen technology and innovation for powertrains MP4-12C," explains Head of Oerlikon Graziano Paolo Mantelli, as reported by autoevolution, Wednesday (05/11/2011).

"In addition to being very fast and dynamic, the car also became very comfortable, smooth, efficient and fun to use it every day. We are working with McLaren Automotive mechanics in developing a new transmission that will help them meet the target," continued Mantelli.

A DCT unit has become a weapon for McLaren as the already famous supercar maker. DCT can combine the smoothness and perfection to change gears quickly without interruption of torque and no reduction in car acceleration.

A three-shaft design selected because of the secondary shaft parallel to help reduce the length of the gearbox. It also allows the machine could be placed optimally. Eight ratio synchronization using high-performance transmission Oerlikon Graziano, further optimized to allow substantial changes more quickly without sacrificing durability cars.
