Observations on the published acceleration numbers in the brochure:

The same 0.2s difference is quoted between DCT and 6MT on both the 0-100km/h and 0-200km/h. Due to much faster shifts of the DCT, I would have expected the gap to widen with the extra shifts needed to get to 200km/h. Any thoughts why? Extra weight of the DCT?

The DCT is shown to be slower by 0.1s on one of the 80-120km/h pick-up numbers (5th gear?), thoughts to why that is? Gear Ratio? Weight? (EDIT: 5th gear and FD are the same between 6MT and DCT, so weight and more losses can be the only culprit )
