Gearbox Type: Manual / Torque Converter / DSG
Skoda offers a range of sophisticated transmissions. Both engines come with a 6-speed Manual. The 1.0 TSI offers an optional 6-speed Torque Converter Automatic, while the 1.5 TSI features the legendary 7-speed DSG (Direct Shift Gearbox) for near-instant gear changes.
Drive Type: FWD
The Slavia utilizes a Front-Wheel Drive (FWD) layout. This configuration provides predictable handling, better fuel economy due to lower mechanical friction, and maximized cabin space for passengers.
Clutch Type: Dry Single Plate / Dual Clutch
Manual versions use a traditional dry single-plate clutch. The DSG variant employs a sophisticated dual-clutch system (DQ200), where one clutch handles odd gears and the other handles even gears, ensuring zero power loss during shifts.
