In this mode, the car will automatically upshift at redline. If you pull a paddle while in Drive, you get a temporary manual mode, which automatically times out, or can be exited sooner by holding the upshift paddle. For example, in Track mode with the transmission set to automatic, the car will downshift aggressively when the driver is braking hard into a corner, and hold upshifts until corner exit. The DCT uses latitudinal and longitudinal accelerometers, and looks at information like throttle position and steering angle to gauge how the car is being driven, and react accordingly.

"There's a lot of pre-selection interaction that goes on in the background," Hoeflinn said. A dual-clutch presents unique challenges, no matter what sort of car it's in.
