If you simply want to enjoy yourself without the stress of shifting gears, this is the perfect choice. Ideal for touring, city traffic and anyone who says: "I want to ride - not think." Comfortable, superior and surprisingly fun.

No clutch lever, no gearshift pedal - simply accelerate and drive off

dual clutch ensures smooth, uninterrupted acceleration

increased comfort, especially over long distances or in stop-and-go situations

the transmission can also be actively influenced via shift paddles

DCT models are often more expensive to purchase and can incur higher maintenance costs

in the event of technical problems, such as a weak battery, the DCT system can fail, making starting or shifting difficult.
