DW23 -
Thank you for this outstanding Partnership

Exploring the DW23:
A Testament to Innovation and Partnership
This innovative dual-clutch transmission has been a cornerstone of our successful partnership over the years, delivering exceptional performance and reliability. We are proud to take a closer look at the outstanding DW23 product, its innovative design features, and the significant impact of our collaboration over the years.
A Proven Partnership
Since 2010, over 3.5 million transmissions have been delivered, supporting a variety of projects and torque ranges. This long-standing collaboration underscores a commitment to quality and innovation.
DW23 Double Clutch Wet – 250 Newton Meters
The DW23 Double Clutch Wet transmission provieds a robust torque capacity of 250 Newton meters.
Innovative Gear Set Design
The 6-speed gear set of DW23 consists of four mechanical gears and two 'virtual' gears. These virtual gears, the 1st and 6th gear, are formed via a bridge, contributing to an extremely compact and lightweight design.
Scalability and Interchangeability
DW23's scalability to HDT 48V and High Voltage hybrid transmissions ensures a seamless interchangeability within the CMF-B platform, accommodating future HDT, and DHD options.
Comprehensive Product Portfolio
The complete product portfolio, with torque capacities of 250 to 400 Newton Meters, caters to segments ranging from B to LCV. These products were trusted across Europe, Asia, and South America.
Our Partnership
The DW23 project and the partnership behind it are a testament to shared commitment to excellence and innovation.
Interchangeability:
How the existing CMF-B compartment can accommodate Dual Clutch, 48V, and High Voltage Hybrid Transmissions

Mild Hybrid
HDT Eco 48V:
- Cost-efficient hybrid solution for applications with minimal electric driving needs
- Primarily designed for functions like parking, maneuvering, and stop-and-go
- Provides an economical and practical solution for selected electric driving capabilities

HEV & PHEV
HDT Eco with 50 or 100-kW e-motor:
- High-voltage HDT Eco with 50 or 100-kW e-motor for applications prioritizing electric driving functions and efficiency.
- Demonstrates significant benefits in WLTP and real-world driving conditions with high dynamic loads.
- Utilizes six gears to maintain the full traction force of the combustion engine.
- P2.5 design and compact gearset allow for scalable electrification in a small and lightweight package.
- Suitable for both HEV and PHEV applications.

PHEV
DHD Eco:
- DHD Eco is a hybrid drive with a powerful e-motor as the main source of propulsion.
- It does not require virtual 1st and 6th gears, and neither R.
- Starts up electrically like a Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV).
- Designed to provide a driving experience similar to a BEV and is primarily meant for Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle applications (PHEV) with a focus on electric driving.

PHEV & Range Extender Concept
DHD Duo:
- Magna's DHD Duo enhances fleet efficiency and reduces CO₂ emissions with improved acceleration, battery recovery, recharging, and all-electric driving.
- Serial-ready Multi-Mode Hybrid Drive with a range extender, using existing ICE platforms efficiently.
- Flexible two E-motor setup for HEV and PHEV applications.
- Modular design, using proven components like motors and inverters for cost-effective and efficient operation.
