Volkswagen: New 7-speed DSG in the works

No news here from What Car, but nice to read it again. Read here how DSG works.

Seven-speed versions of the Direct Shift Gearbox are on the way from Volkswagen Group (VAG).

The VW Golf is likely to be the first model to benefit from the seven-speed version of the DSG automatic. The extra ratio has allowed VW to space first and second closer together – for better acceleration away from a standstill – and provide a taller top gear for improved economy and lower carbon dioxide emissions.
