Recently, ŠKODA AUTO’s transmission manufacturing facility in Vrchlabí, one of the most technically advanced VW’s sites, has produced the 3-millionth DQ200 automatic direct-shift transmission (DSG). This landmark event underlines the plant’s importance within VW’s global production network. It is said that currently the factory in Vrchlabí manufactures approximately 2,200 DSG units every day.

Progress does not stand still as new technologies emerge in the automotive industry every day. Special attention should be paid to significant achievements of automobile engineers in the field of automobile technologies. Pre-selective transmission technologies gained significant popularity with the release of DSG6 and DSG7 transmissions designed by Volkswagen.

Fifteen years ago, the German carmaker VW presented the 1-st dual clutch gearbox (DSG) for high-volume manufacturing, a sophisticated gearbox solution for present-day cars. More fuel-saving and efficient than any automatic transmission before, the DSG changed the perception of the gear shifting process, especially in the compact cars.

Skoda announced that the company’s factory in Vrchlabi, Czech Republic, achieved a significant milestone of 2 million produced dual-clutch transmissions DQ200. The factory in Vrchlabi became of the Skoda manufacturing network more than 70 years ago.
