How does the automatic EDC gearbox work on Renault cars?

Model: Renault Renault Various
Part: Transmission

In this video we see how the EDC gearbox of Renault cars works: it is a dual-clutch automatic gearbox, available on all models of the group.

It is also possible to set it according to our preferences, as is now normal on new production cars. The driving modes are "eco", "sport", "comfort" and "individual", so that you can have a different response from the entire mechanical and electronic system, according to the needs of the moment. The fuel consumption achieved with this gearbox is very low and with a comfortable driving style. Of course, it is not the gearbox suitable for those looking for sporty performance; for these enthusiasts, a manual gearbox is definitely recommended.
