TechNavio today launched its report Global Double-clutch Transmission System Market 2012-2016 based on an in-depth analysis covering the Americas, and the EMEA and APAC regions. The report aims to aid decision makers’ understanding of the present and future landscape of the market.
Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio’s Automotive team said: ”The increasing adoption of dry double-clutch transmission systems is one of the emerging trends in the Global Double-clutch Transmission System market. The market is witnessing an increasing adoption of dry double-clutch transmission systems because they are more efficient than wet double-clutch transmission systems. This is because a wet clutch can cause pumping losses of transmission fluid, which is not a common occurrence in the case of a dry clutch. Further, wet clutches are more suitable for high-torque vehicles with outputs of more than 250 Nm. Therefore, for vehicles with torque outputs of less than 250 Nm, manufacturers are adopting dry double-clutch transmission systems. This trend is expected to drive the growth of the Global Double-clutch Transmission System market.”
According to the report, the increasing adoption of double-clutch transmission systems in gasoline vehicles is one of the major drivers in the Global Double-clutch Transmission System market. In 2012, roughly 1.09 million units of double-clutch transmission systems up to six-speed were sold for installation in gasoline vehicles; this number is expected to grow at a CAGR of over 30 percent during the forecast period.
Further, the report states that the increasing adoption of continuously variable transmission systems is one of the major challenges in the Global Double-clutch Transmission System market.
The report also includes a discussion of the key vendors operating in this market. The key vendors dominating this market space are Borg Warner Inc., GETRAG Corporate Group, OC Oerlikon Corp. AG, and ZF Friedrichshafen AG. The other vendors mentioned in the report are Fiat Powertrain Technologies, LuK Clutch Systems LLC, and Ricardo plc.
