Hi, I am thinking on getting 335is with 7DCT (GS7D36SG), but I was wondering is it really faster than 6AT (ZF6HP21)?
Is DCT only faster if you drive 0-60, but not when you suddenly decide to overtake and kickdown is needed?
- Lets say if you are driving regularly in 4th gear (I assume DCT will prepare next higher gear?) and then you floor it, so it would need to lower instead of increasing gear, would 6AT (ZF6HP21) react faster in such case?
- Lets say if you are cruising in 7th gear low RPM and then you floor it, so it would need to lower more than one gear, would 6AT (ZF6HP21) react faster in such case?
