Re: [AutoBild Sportscars] - Audi R8 S-tronic performance data

Correct if I'm wrong, but isn't Audi's S-Tronic what Volkswagen still calls it DSG gearbox?

Re: [AutoBild Sportscars] - Audi R8 S-tronic performance data

I'd go for the S-tronic! By the way Autobild just tested the R8 vs. 911 4S vs. Corvette Coupe vs. Jaguar XKR, care to guess who won?

That's true but R8 has R-Tronic which is the same with Lambo's e-gear.

I think it is, but AB says it's a sequential, so... But I will edit it to DSG

Indeed, one of the best on the market. One of the best ever, actually.

Thanks for the post DeDe

Re: [AutoBild Sportscars] - Audi R8 S-tronic performance data

Not much of a difference in acceleration....

Re: [AutoBild Sportscars] - Audi R8 S-tronic performance data

the R8 R-tronic system is other that S-tronic in other Audi models

 

[cato1974]

The R-Tronic is different from the S-Tronic ( aka DSG). The R-tronic is a system based off of a single electronically controlled clutch. The S-Tronic is VWs new double clutch system which will automatically prepare the next gear in line for seamless smooth shifting. Shifting with the R-tronic will still yield some head snapping with forceful acceleration as the throttle is cut momentarily during shifting but with better performance with shifts in the 200 ms range. Hope that helps

Well, I hope it's much better than 200ms. I heard that the BMW 335i changes gears in 100ms(the auto trans of course). The DSG has a superb shift time of only 8 ms when the computer has the right guess for the next gear (usual). R-tronic is fast (I drove it on & off the track for a while) but it's hard to tell how fast in ms. I really hope your 200ms range is a guess, and a wrong one

 

[cato1974]

i sure hope im wrong too! but I do remember reading 200ms somewhere. I can't remember where though, but i'll try to find out
