- What's The Best Transmission For A Sports Car? Manual vs DCT
Hyundai Veloster N 6MT vs N DCT - Sponsored by Hyundai.
Subscribe for new videos every Wednesday! - goo.gl/VZstk7
The 2021 Hyundai Veloster N now comes with two transmission options: a 6-speed manual transmission, or an 8-speed dual clutch transmission. Which begs the question, which transmission should you pick? In this video we'll explain how manual transmissions work, as well as how dual clutch transmissions work. We'll then look at the inner workings of Hyundai's 6MT as well as their N DCT. Finally, we'll discuss the advantages of each style of transmission by looking at weight, cost, efficiency, performance, shift speed, torque delivery, driver engagement, and gear ratios.

The best transmission is the friends we made along the way
HELLO!!! I want to spend time with celebrities. Just kidding. GAGAGAGAGA! I only want to spend time with my two girlfriends and record RUclips videos for with the 3 of us. OH YEAH. Don't hate me for living the best life, dear ronan
Sounds profound but really makes no sense
Friendship is magic
Sounds like the start of a bad porno..
@@TheJamesLykins that’s the point
Not gonna lie, Hyundai has done an excellent marketing job by sponsoring RUclips channels. They've got me genuinely interested in their car
Yeah donut media and the straight pipes and now engineering explained. They are literally everywhere
Even though i wouldn't get one, I'm just happy Hyundai is hyping up hot hatches again.
Yes them and KIA are moving up. I have a 2013 Gencoupe with 125K and it runs great stock clutch no problem.The only thing I don't understand about the Veloster is its the same 2.0 engine as mine put they only do 260 on the torque where mine does 274 they should have raised it to the same level. Hope they put in the new 2.5 engine in it in the future.
@@cindysue5474 I have a 2011 Gencoupe with over 131k miles. Runs like a top still. I have a 2020 Veloster N w/PP. The N is a such a blast to drive. Sadly, this weekend it goes up on jacks for the winter thanks to the P Zero OEM tires. The Gencoupe with winter tires is fun to drive when is snows with the RWD.
@@cindysue5474 Hyundai and Kia have been killing it at least since I bought my Forte Koup back in 2011. Downside is that I can't get anything like the value I could then, when the value difference vs. say a Honda was just embarrasing. :(
Ah, I missed these sorts of videos; the ones where I can misunderstand concepts and parrot them back in conversation to look smart.
Science!

Welp, at least you have a goal. 👍
I thought the same thing. I can finally understand something.
"Hmm yeah, I definitely think the blue clutch is better than the red clutch, amirite guys?"
At least Hyundai knows what market it needs to advertise to
RUclipsrs and Nurburgring
they are sponsoring every single car youtube (at least that I watch) and its making me wanna buy one and its not even available in my country and I don't even have money to buy any kind of cars lol
and no word about crashes of catalyc converters and scratches in cylinders
Maybe Mighty Car Mods can learn something.
NEVER receive money form car manufactures if you want review cars. 😒
Those are some excellent drawings, Jason. How on Earth do you get them looking so clean?
Thanks! Really appreciate hearing this because they take a lot of planning, and doodling! Especially ensuring the gearing looks reasonably correct (like 1st vs 2nd sizes, etc).
I was noticing that too. I'm a fairly proficient technical artist and was thinking, no way that's his first attempt at drawing all that. Nicely done Jason, some of your best whiteboard for sure. Do you have a favorite whiteboard?
@@Druwoods I have a feeling that this man could do a 45 minute video on whiteboards and dry erase markers alone.
It's one of those things almost no one will pay attention to when they are done correctly, but most people will complain about when something is off :D
Came to the the comments just to say this, looks amazing man.
Owning a DSG car, and several manual transmission cars, I love them both. The DSG is ultra fast, and blipping the paddles is oddly satisfying. Plus in traffic it's great. Obv rowing gears is it's own set of fun. Basically if you can't have fun driving either, you're not trying hard enough. Also DSG is faster soooooo ;)
As a die hard manual fan who's never owned an auto ever, DSG is the superior transmission, hands down, in almost every way except for cost, complexity and reliability, but that's simply a factor of physics. In every measurable, practical, real-world way, the DSG is the only good option. Period.
Yet, I'd pay more to own a manual. Thankfully though, I don't need to 😂.
Owning a DSG car, I agree. The paddles are great fun, and the transmission is especially effective with turbocharged engines where maintaining boost through gear changes is essential.
Manual always here.
Thanks for voicing your opinion @HumbleMechanic. 13:35 of excellent information from Jason, but no opinion? Get crazy @engineeringexplained and tell us how you really feel! :)
I love both of them but if I have to pick a winner I'd say DSG all the way. Both are fun but it's hard to argue with more performance.
Sooooo nothing! Ther's always something faster. But DSG is just another automatic, though a more direct feeling one.
Nothing replaces the feeling of taking off uphil or rolling in neutral while in traffic.
You do not need to go fast to enjoy a manual.
An 8-speed, dual clutch transmission is quite a feat of engineering.
How about a 6 sp. DCT ? Is it less of a feat?
I have the Veloster N with the DCT. Too early for me to say about reliability, but other than that, it's a great transmission! They nailed the programming on it.
@@bill_the_duckhow is the DCT holding up after this comment 5 months back
@@YonkoPapa Just over 20K miles on a 23 Kona N I daily drive in MN and I have had no issues what so ever with the DCT its fantastic to drive and I dont notice the slow speed or traffic hiccups that are referenced often with DCT's so as a Daily the DCT is fantastic and super responisve
@@gusbusb9 right on! That’s good to hear because the DCT is definitely going to to be my choice when I go to check out an Elantra N.
Yes, the stop and go kind of traffic is what I heard can destroy the DCT’s faster than usual, but that’s why everyone ive heard suggest the same thing which is constantly feeding gas vs letting the car lurch forward by itself.
Even if it’s just a smidgeon of gas, that’s what is preferred over allowing the vehicle to move just off the clutches.
Nissan CVT is the best transmission for failure.
It's reputation goes so far that I chose a single clutch AMT instead of Nissan's CVT as my Lada's transmission
I personally know two people who've had their Nissan CVT fail and bought new cars (not Nissan) instead of replacing the CVT.......On the other hand my Honda's CVT has never given me an ounce of trouble.

As a Hyundai tech, I really appreciate this video because you explain in far more detail what is going on in their DCT. We have our own training for them, but I feel like you make it much easier to understand. It's great to see Hyundai reach out to independent creators like yourself to showcase their new vehicles. I'm lucky enough to have driven a Veloster N myself, and it was an amazing ride. Awesome video!
I can't find info in my owner's manual. Does my 2022 Tuscon SE automatic have dual clutch? Non-hybrid, AWD.
@@craigmdietrich6916 It should have. Check in the glossary for mention of it. There should be a section on the proper operation of it.
Are 7speed dct bad?
@drickph3066 why would they be? 7 speed actually makes more sense from a packaging standpoint than 8. Reverse can be added to one of the shafts giving you 8 gears in total.
"They shift way faster than a human ever will"
IS THAT A CHALLENGE
It's actually fact Porsche dct shifts thousands of a second regular hundredths of a second fastest a race car driver did it quarter of a second
Does it shift even faster than that dude on Nissan Maxima 3.0 V6 running a drag race? (Google it, I tell ya)
Yes, even dual clutch transmission shifts much faster than humans ever will.

Hi Jason-as mentioned below, your skill at white-board has been turned up to 11 on this post. The clean drawings with digital overlays has really helped me to visualize what is going on here. Always look forward to what you will tackle next!
I'm just waiting for James from Donut Media to pop out and start yelling about the Veloster N the whole video.
Donuts Veloster ads almost singlehandedly made me buy a Veloster N, I really hope hyundai airs those as solo ads
Quite possibly the best video explaining transmission. This video should never be taken down. Been a fan for yrs but this is the first time I felt compelled to say thanks and I hope more people appreciate your work.
As a senior DCT Calibration engineer, I approve this message!
Outstanding presentation. I continue to be impressed by your ability to present complex topics clearly and quickly. Your drawings and overlaid animations in this presentation are excellent. Thanks for putting in so much time and effort on this.
That emphasis on “legally” for the fastest you’ve driven is priceless
Damn i felt in love with Hyundai N division since I bought my 2017 I30N!
Thanks for this crystal clear explanation!
Keep the good work, I love your content!
Love that you speak rapidly but extremely concise and understandable. I got lost on the last tranmission, but found with your vids, if I watch them a second time I usually get it. Wish I would have know about you when my son was little, he needed a smart cool guy role model!
I would still go for a manual but I would love to try out the DCT
140 pounds more for the dct... That's like 1/2 a mother-in-law.
Or the pin weight of a sea doo trailer.
Ooof
😂
Lol

Jason nailed it as always. I could actual follow along thanks to his meticulous drawings. Well done good man.
I am currently taking apart 5 and 6 speed MTs at school, and this video is helping with so many connections.
Great explanation of manual vs. Dct. I wondered why they were being used in performance focused cars. Thanks for the video.

Clearly more clutches is better - triple clutch.
Would eliminate the problem of anticipating the next gear. You just preselect both!
A clutch for every speed. Now that would be fast.

Another great informative video Jason. Great job!!
excellent presentation as always, great way to explain things!!
Hyundai definitely listened to the drivers, if the N DCT was around when I got my MK7 GTI DSG the decision would've been much harder to make. Big props to Hyundai!
Yes but they need to raise the HP and TQ a little bit in the Veloster up too 300HP and 275 280 on the TQ or just drop in the new 2.5 engine.
Nice. Was fascinated by the whiteboard art. Yes, art. That one's a keeper
His artwork was toight, toight like a Tiger. Yes, yes.
GREAT VIDEO + GRAPHICS Jason - much needed! My wife is just changing from lifelong manual use to a DCT. I have both manual (MX-5 6-speed) and DCT (Skoda Superb 6-speed). The 2021 Veloster is very desirable. :-) All the best, Rob
Another outstanding video.. great explanation as always!
0.2 vs 0.5 sec isn't as big of a difference in shift time as I expected.
Personally I always prefer a manual, a car not offering a manual option is a deal beaker so it's great to see hyundai still supporting enthusiasts with their performance models!
If you think about it another way, it's 0.5 second loss of acceleration with manual versus basically 0.0s loss of acceleration on DCT due to clutch overlap.
That smile on his face when he says "legally " 😁
As a car guy, your videos kick ass in explaining how they work!
Thank you for all the time you put into explaining all that! 🙂
Manual is more fun, DCT is faster. End of story.
manual is faster manual is lighter
dct only faster for professional race driver for average to good driver manual faster and heel toe braking is easier
Unless you think going faster is more fun.
Unless you're in traffic most of the time.
@@andy42x Also, if you intend to "drive" that DCT "like an automatic (hydraulic)", you will be having FREQUENT down time due to excessive clutch wear! You HAVE to avoid "creeping" in stop and go traffic and using the transmission as a "hill holder"!!!
Very good drawings and concise explanation, loved it! Now could you delve deeper into how the clutches operate? Electro-magnetic clutches, electric slip rings, oil bath? How is that all put together?
Ah nice, you have been in Germany. Hope you liked it here 😅 and thankfully you explain an dual clutch shift which i bought last friday. Watching this Video is a double win for me 🙈 but i already watched many of yours and enjoyed every single one of them! Thanks for your good work!

awesome video as always!
Manual transmissions make cars timeless. You can get into an old manual car and still enjoy the hell out of it. Old automatics give me heartburn.
.. and your wallet an automatic, violent regurgitation ..
Exactly man! It makes any car at least a little fun
Great video as always.
I‘m curious to know about whether a dct transmission is reliable in pulling trailers or not. What about wear-and-tear? As far as I know, the clutches are subject to a certain amount of wear, but so are modern torque converters (?)
Best Car teacher ever
Keep it up man
Great Video! Very educational.
What I heard
Manual= easy to change, clutch cost is low
Dual Clutch = difficult to repair, cost is much higher
Therefore .. the Dual Clutch is the best (for the Repair / Replacement Industry).
More like Replacement .. genuine 'Motor Mechanics / Repairmen' are, in this day and age, scarcer than Hen's Teeth.
Unless it’s manual with a dual mass flywheel. Price a BMW clutch and dual mass flywheel. The Dm flywheels start to vibrate and have to be replaced.
So still drive a manual daily if you want to save up money? Already on it with my 2015 Fit EX and it's a joy to drive!
And now I know more than I did 20 mins ago.
I'm happy to see you are collaborating with Hyundai! I hope to see more in the future!
Brilliantly Explained 👌🏻
One disadvantage you forgot to mention for the dct is when you want to change to the gear that isn't engaged. I.e. the computer is expecting you to upshift as you coast up to a red light, then the light turns green, you put your foot down, and are actually wanting to go down a gear. It can take as long as a second on some dct to change that way, because the computer has to engage the lower gear before it can engage the other clutch. It isn't that big of a deal when driving on a track or driving hard, because that makes it easy for the computer to predict what gear you're going to need next.
The most annoying thing about my Kia Soul with the DCT is this. Coming to a almost stop, and going again feels like the car is slipping the clutch briefly and takes a second to catch. Other than that it's been lots of fun to drive, but it has a learning curve unlike a traditional auto. If you're just driving in D and floor it, there are times it will delay before taking off quick. I fix that problem by switching to manual mode and downshifting before I floor it lol.
I think the other issue is that it tends to encourage you to floor it, because you're not getting as immediate response as you're used to with the car when it happens, which can end up engaging traction control when it eventually does drop down a gear, making the delay even worse.
All that said it's still way less effort to drive in stop and go traffic than a manual, so worth the trade off for a daily driver I think.
Have you done a video that compares all of the variable lift methods?
VTEC, toyota vtec, bmw valvetronic, subaru etc etc... ?
I remember a VTEC one and Maybe the BMW one but I don't think there was a comparison. I'd be psyched to see that. Very cool.
Excellent explanation of these two options!
I'm way more into engagement so I'll make up the 0.5 seconds with MORE POWER🔥💪😎
As always, a great vid. Just wish it was done sooner I just finished an debate on autos vs manuals
A new day where I say I'll try not to procrastinate today. Then EE releases "Manual vs Dual Clutch" video. You...
My 2015 Ford Focus (dct automatic) is fun on highways but inching through heavy traffic or inching up steep hills is a pain in the ass.
(it also has the same problem as the earlier Focus dct models: rough shifting between gears 1&2.)
thanks to you I finally understood how the gearbox works
Very good explanations. Your drawings are excellent 👍.
Just for reference you should also talk about sequential race transmissions.
Why? No one uses them in the real world. Every comparison has been real world comparisons.
@@FXIIBeaver so what. It would be a fun video. I only got to drive a sequential once. It would be really cool if they were made for street
Every motorcycle I’ve owned has had one.
@@FXIIBeaver Motorcycles have them. Some bikes even have "quick shifters" where you can shift without using the clutch at all. Push the shift lever and the ecu briefly cuts power to the engine and you slip into the next gear. You can also do the same thing manually of course but the computer is better at it.
Great stuff. Too bad I have a CVT in my Impreza lol. Love the car though.
CVT is great too ~ just missing some torque ~ but hey we technically having infinite gear
Just put down a deposit on a Black M/T Veloster N a few days ago. Couldn't be more excited!
Drawings are really top notch! As pedagogical it can get 😃👏
"switching from one clutch to anther clutch"
thinks: "crab people, crab people.."
Thanks.. Now I picture the Futurama crab man wobbling from side to side saying "from this clutch to this clutch" while snapping hands.. :D
Hyundai used to use a dry clutch setup for their DCT, similar to the notorious Ford PowerShift. The wet clutch is a big plus as far as longevity goes.
@Munshat Rahman
Not sure if it's the power shift variant, but the auto transmissions on their focus suck. Class action lawsuits and whatnot.
Though I doubt the dry clutch is the issues, but rather the overall design is flawed.
@Munshat Rahman Exactly, very unreliable, some challenge if there is a worse transmission in existence when it comes to reliability. Class Action lawsuits, recalls, etc etc.
Well explained, thank you!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING JASON
owing a manual means no one ever asks to borrow my car
Good one I love that. Manual NO.1
Tho I love driving a manual, I would also love to own a car with a nice (reliable) dct
Oxymoron: reliable DCT 😂
Well, relatively speaking. I've only been in a couple of DCT's so I don't have a lot of experience with them. A buddy of mine has a Boxster S with the PDK and it's pretty darned good. He "drives" it but he also maintains it and after 3 to 4 years now, it's going strong. Long term remains to be seen but he and his wife tend to keep cars like this a minimum of 10 years so I guess we'll find out eventually! ;-)
Yeah, just like Ford, Hyundai has had their share of "class action" DCT lawsuits. Specifically, the '16, '17 Veloster. But, these involved their "dry clutch" DCT. Let's hope that the "wet" ones work out better. Btw, the dry clutch has less power loss than the wet clutch, so the Veloster would be even faster with the dry clutch!
There are none
I love the raw info videos but this is a vehicle I’m interested in and I think it would be nice to also get your take on driving them!
all my questions are answered for the rest of my life as a milllitary veteran thank you so much sir your my war hero love you sir!!!!
DCT's can be a bit jerky at low speeds and sometimes get a bit confused about which gear to select for the next change
I was discussing with my friend this exact topic just some hours ago. Bruh!
ARRRRRG 13 minutes and so much colour on the white board.... My brain is popping - Luv it!
Awesome explanation
I love a DCT or DSG as Volkswagen called it. I had one in my 2010 Volkswagen GTI. Such seamless and fast shifts. It made me a believer.
*DSG. A 2010 GTI would make it a 6-speed, which also uses a wet clutch system. The 7-speed DSG is a dry clutch system.
How about a video on sequential transmissions and dogboxes?
Do a video on gt3 regs I’ve loved the videos learned so much thanks
I wanted so long for his part of the Hyundai RUclips Car Community cause he breaks things down for us logical and mechanical enthusiasts
Heaven help someone that needs their Hyundai N DCT transmission worked on or repaired. It looks expensive AND complicated. Eight clutch plates???
Your probably dont work on them. Replacement of the whole unit. I'm sure you could do small things with it but anything that actually breaks inside would probably chew up everything inside of that like a blender.
Having 8 clutch plates distributes the power on more surface and material. Maybe it will live for very long? Agreed that if something goes wrong mechanically, it looks like a nightmare to work on
Random thought- would a wet multi plate clutch be practical in a standard manual?
Except cost and weight, yes.
There are some multi disc (dry) clutch manuals out there, and being in oil would help with heat, and prolong life in times it needs to be slipped.
Tractors have used wet clutches for years. They have more clamping force, and last longer.
@@tangydiesel1886 Initial cost only, I guess? Cause if it helps to keep them alive for longer, the additional cost of maintenance could potentially be cancelled by the higher longevity.
Other than the previous 2 responses, another disadvantage is the complexity of the oil system. Dry clutch systems don't need to be airtight whereas the wet system needs to contain oil without leaking. My MT car has a little removable inspection plate for the clutch/flywheel which would not be possible with a wet system.
Edit: but an automanufacturer could totally do it if they wanted.
If motorcycles count, then Yes.
Motorcycles have using them for decades. Look up motorcycle powered cars and trikes. Haveing build a reverse trike powered by a FZR 600 engine, it can be a pain to get the vehicle moving. Wet clutchs like to be off or on and there isn't much inbetween. Expect to stall out repleatedly especially when using a foot operated clutch pedal...untill you get used to it.
I appreciate the explanation.
Great video!

love your work!
What is the difference in terms of how reliable these gearboxes are after 100,000 miles?
This. And also the repair, replacement and maintenance costs. I bet the DCT can't even be fixed - probably replacement only
100k on my DQ250 equipped audi. Stock clutches with around 400 bhp going thru them. 0 problems. hopefully hyundai's would be built just as well since mine is from 2009. DCT's are just as robust as standard manuals, given the fluid is changed regularly. Clutch packs are replaceable as units typically.
I don't see the point of another car companies trying to ''innovate'' and create new and different type of transmissions, when Toyota first introduced the planetary gear set on their hybrids, a system which has no belts nor chains, just gears that rotate and 2 electric motors, it just can't be more robust, reliable and efficient yet the parts only rotate. Others should stop making more complex and less efficient transmissions, Toyota made the best of all, just copy it.
5 year warranty with the car, probably upgrade at the 5 year mark so who cares?

@@sjorsangevare cool👍🏼😂
@@sjorsangevare yea true
Love my Mark 5 GTI with the DSG. Amazing for driving up the steep hills of the canyon where I live. And as someone who is interested in various other hobbies/activities involving electrical control of parameters in real time (electronic music and gaming, namely), I feel that it's absolutely essential to decouple shifting from throttle input as automatic transmissions must do. Especially with cars that show significant turbo lag, the delay in getting the power output you're looking for can take ages in a car with a traditional automatic transmission.
Excellent video

I will always choose driver engagement every single time through MT. It’s not always about sheer performance; it’s about the experience and interaction, getting to know your car.
You're being fooled. Your throttle is being controlled by computer. So are your brakes.MT's are throwbacks that are out of place on today's cars. They perform poorly by modern standards. I drove them for most of my life, but gave up when they lost the economy and performance advantage to DSG's and modern automatics.
@@johnstone7697 You obviously didn't read my comment. I said, it's not always about performance. Oh btw, MT are overwhelmingly common in Europe to this day, so don't tell me they're out of place on today's cars.
