The Hyundai Verna’s dual clutch transmission (DCT) has heated up among potential buyers and car enthusiasts. DCTs are known for their quick shifts and sporty feel, and while they have a reputation for being reliable, there are a lot of reports (especially when driving in stop-and-go traffic) of potential issues. However, in particularly Indian driving scenarios involving heavy traffic and high temperatures, some users report worries about the DCT’s longevity. Many other people are praising the performance and fuel efficiency of the DCT. Many are asking if the potential risks, as well as maintenance costs, are worth the benefits of the DCT. It's also prompted debate about Hyundai's choice to employ a dry DCT, rather than a wet DCT, which is usually seen as more robust but less efficient. The controversy has been so great that some buyers considering a purchase have also looked at other transmission options or competing models.
