" Twin clutch that feels singularly automatic. Using Fiat mechanicals and Chrysler/Fiat tuning, Dodge is releasing its first dual-clutch transmission in the 2013 Dodge Dart. Designed as a fuel-efficient alternative to a conventional fluid-drive automatic, the Dual Dry Clutch Transmission has been tuned to act like a traditional automatic and is coupled to the Fiat/Alfa Romeo 1.4-liter turbo 4-cylinder available in the Dart SXT, Rallye and Limited models. The entry-level Dart SE and range-topping R/T feature the naturally aspirated 2.0-liter 4-cylinder and do not offer the DDCT. Dodge met its goal of making the DDCT indistinguishable from an automatic. In a short drive, we found the DDCT entirely conventional when left in Drive, and relatively unhurried when operated manually with the floor shifter\u2014there are no paddles. Pricing of the DDCT itself is buried in the upgrade to the required 1.4-liter turbo engine with Fiat&amp;#039;s MultiAir technology, but the Dart SXT begins at $17,995, the Rallye at $18,995 and the Limited at $19,995.
