A main feature of 02E DSG DQ250 is its elongated shape. Connecting rod of a crankshaft moves along the shafts of the box, which are planted on a long driveshaft. This design provides the smoothest switching, which is almost insensible for the driver. In this way it is possible to use the gearbox in a fully manual mode, when the driver can switch the speed by moving a lever up and down.
