Transmissions
Shifting in a matter of milliseconds, Mercedes-AMG transmissions optimize gear changes for maximum performance. With manual shift mode and steering wheel paddles, it’s fit for any driving style.
On top of that, AMG DYNAMIC SELECT lets you transform your vehicle’s character at any time. Select from up to five modes: Comfort, Sport, Sport+, Individual and Race. This gives drivers unprecedented choice, and allows precise modifications of the vehicle’s tuning.
MCT 7-Speed
AMG SPEEDSHIFT® MCT 7-Speed Transmission
A radical rethinking of the automatic transmission, the SPEEDSHIFT MCT 7-Speed uses a multiple-disc wet clutch for direct connection between engine and transmission. The result is a full, constant power flow and outstanding throttle response.
DCT 7G
AMG SPEEDSHIFT® DCT 7-Speed Transmission
Appearing in the AMG GT, it combines the transmission, differential and rear axles into a single unit. That gives the vehicle ideal weight distribution, handling and balance, and allows it to shift in under 100 milliseconds.
DCT 8G
AMG SPEEDSHIFT® DCT 8-Speed Transmission
Another engineering achievement, the CLA 45 features a dual clutch transmission and AMG-enhanced software, so the connection between engine and transmission is almost completely direct.
PLUS 7G-TRONIC
AMG SPEEDSHIFT® PLUS 7G-TRONIC 7-Speed Transmission
For the SPEEDSHIFT PLUS 7G-TRONIC 7-Speed, a lockup torque converter helps reduce slippage and enhance acceleration, making it an excellent fit for vehicles with high torque, like the S 65.
TCT 9G
AMG SPEEDSHIFT TCT 9G
This is the perfect gearbox for cars like the E 53 Coupe and the C 43 Sedan. It delivers quick, almost imperceptible shifts with nine speeds so it can rapidly adjust to any driving situation.
MCT 9G
AMG SPEEDSHIFT MCT 9-Speed Transmission
The world’s first 9-speed multi-clutch transmission uses a wet startup clutch and magnesium casing to save weight and improve performance. Shorter shift times and multi-gear downshifts add to the aggressive feel.
