The New Valeo Smart O.E. Transmission Systems technology for outstanding responsiveness and comfort. In 2020 Valeo launched the IAM OE Valeo Dual Dry Clutch designed to foster a unique driving experience and lower CO2 emissions. The Valeo Dual Dry clutch delivers highly responsive gear shift, smooth and powerful acceleration along with minimized NHV (noise, vibration and harshness).
A new asset for Valeo
In 2020, Valeo is launching to the independent aftermarket its offer for Dual Dry Clutch Transmission. This new asset extends Valeo's area of expertise on Transmission Systems making the aftermarket specialist a genuine “one stop shop” reliable supplier. The Valeo Dual Dry Clutch already applies to KIA and Hyundai models, enabling Valeo to hold a strategic position in a massively growing market.
Valeo designs excellence.
The Valeo Dual Dry Clutch stands for outstanding performances embedded in O.E. technology. A great focus has been concentrated on some of the product's key features. A smoothly continuous acceleration combined with a minimum loss of torque fostering powerful driving sensations, an electromechanically controlled gear change boosting the driving efficiency. The Valeo Dual Dry Clutch 7 gears actuators offer 15% faster gear change compared to the previous generation of DDC from Hyundai-Kia, with a 6-gear transmission. All these features together make the Valeo Dual Dry Clutch probably one of the best available in the aftermarket combining the comfort of an automatic transmission and the responsiveness of a manual transmission
Valeo against CO2 emissions.
CO2 emissions reduction is one of the major stakes at Valeo and has been at the center of the development of the Dual Dry Clutch.
As a result, Valeo DDC was designed to offer a continuous transmission of engine power, with minimum torque loss during gear change.
Moreover, gear disengagement operates without electrical power being controlled by the electromechanical actuator. All these innovations put together enhance smoothness, lower vibrations and resistance, ultimately reducing fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
Valeo Dual Dry Clutch and much more
The new Valeo offer has been thought of in a smart way with a simple manual calibration procedure for better efficiency in the workshop. In addition the offer comes with a complete technical support program, including fitting instructions, live training, webinars, interactive presentations and videos from the Valeo Tech-assist free Online Technical web platform.
This is a new major step in Valeo’s strategy for IAM, continuing the massive developments in DMFs, clutch kits with hydraulic bearings (CSC) and hydraulic actuators for transmission. The Valeo Dual Dry Clutch offer includes the Dual Dry Clutch Kits, Dual Mass Flywheel, Actuators, Fitting tools and complete Technical Support Package
