What is the purpose of the dual-clutch transmission in the Audi A7?

I've heard that the Audi A7 has a dual-clutch transmission but I'm not sure what that means or how it differs from a regular automatic transmission. Can you explain its purpose and how it works in the A7?

The dual-clutch transmission in the Audi A7 allows for lightning-fast gear changes, providing a smoother and more efficient driving experience. It uses two separate clutches for odd and even gears, allowing for seamless shifts without any interruptions in power.

Think of the dual-clutch transmission as two manual transmissions working in tandem. While one clutch is engaging one gear, the other clutch is already pre-selecting the next gear, resulting in faster and smoother gear changes compared to a traditional automatic transmission.

The dual-clutch transmission in the Audi A7 also has a manual mode option, giving drivers the ability to take full control and make their own gear changes. This can be particularly useful for drivers who want a more engaged driving experience on winding roads.
