Porsche Doppelkupplung
(PDK).
PDK is available as an option for
the new 911 Carrera GTS mod
els. Gear changes take place in
milliseconds, for vastly improved
acceleration and lower fuel con
sumption.
In total, PDK has seven gears at
its disposal. Gears 1 to 6 have a
sports ratio, with the top speed
being reached in 6th gear. The
7th gear has a long ratio and
Six-speed manual gearbox.
Accurate and involving: the six
speed manual gearbox is the
link to each and every gear.
The cable operated gearshif t
unit is designed for optimum
progression through the gears
and the gear lever is insulated
from the engine and gearbox.
With minimal resistance, the
gear lever throw is short and
precise, enabling a rapid gear
shif t action and positive
response. helps to reduce fuel consump
tion even further. PDK is essen
tially t wo half gearboxes in one
and thus requires t wo clutches –
designed here as a double wet
clutch transmission.
This double clutch provides an
alternating, non positive connec
tion bet ween the t wo half gear
boxes and the engine by means
of t wo separate input shaf ts (input shaf t 1 is nested inside
the hollowed
out input shaf t 2).
The flow of power from the
engine is only ever transmit ted
through one half gearbox and
one clutch at a time, while the
next gear is preselected in the
second half gearbox. During
a gear change, therefore, a
conventional shift no longer
takes place. Instead, one clutch
simply opens and the other
closes at the same time. PDK and the manual gearbox
deliver power directly to the
road. With the optional Sport
Chrono Package Plus (p. 26),
you can make it even more
direct, and even sportier. With a
rush of adrenaline and euphoria,
you are straight into the action.
Precise actions hit the mark sooner.
The same is true of our transmission concepts.
