Question of the Day: What's a Double-Clutch Gearbox?

Askktpromobutton

Gearboxes/transmissions are some of the most complicated mechanical components in a car. Today’s Ask.cars.com questioner isn’t too concerned with the exact inner workings, but simply wants to know what it means for the driver to have a car equipped with a double-clutch gearbox. That’s not too much to ask, right?

What's a double-clutch gearbox?

I use to have to double clutch the firetruck I used to drive in the 70's.
Guess things have changed eh?
