I don't understand how people say ZF is a downgrade from DCT. If that were the case why would BMW do that? On the M3 platform no less. An auto is an auto no matter how you slice it. I'm pretty sure BMW can make the ZF just as quick and responsive as the DCT. |
To save money. Production costs are reduced my running the same auto transmission across the the models.
Ever wonder why Supercars have DCTs almost exclusively ?
