The life of a dual-clutch transmission (DCT) is quite long, as long as it is used normally, it can last for several decades without any problem: 1. A DCT is different from a regular automatic transmission system, as it is based on a manual transmission but not an automatic one. 2. In addition to the flexibility of a manual transmission and the comfort of an automatic transmission, a DCT can provide seamless power output, which is not possible with a traditional manual transmission that uses only one clutch. 3. When changing gears, the driver needs to press the clutch pedal to make the gears engage, which may cause a power gap during the change, resulting in a slightly interrupted output. In short, a DCT can last for a long time if it is used normally and maintained properly.
