 Shanghai. December 19 (Gasgoo.com) – Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation (SAIC) will take the lead to use BorgWarner DSG technology in its Roewe vehicles by 2010, Chinese web media Sina.com.

Earlier this month, BorgWarner president Bernd Matthes, along his top aides, traveled to Shanghai to promote their DSG technology. “Shanghai Auto will take the lead to use DSG technology in Roewe models by 2009,” Bernd Matthes told reporters.

DSG stands for direct-shifting gearbox. The new technology enables a manual transmission to evolve and perform like an automatic transmission, yet deliver significantly improved vehicle fuel economy over automatic transmissions of today.

BorgWarner has been providing Volkswagen and Audi vehicles with its dual-clutch DSG transmission systems since 2003.
