The new e-motor + clutch engagement is both smoother than the torque converter and shift are noticeably more "snappy". Only thing is, you can't exactly brake torque it off the like at about 2k RPM, it sits lower at around 1500RPM and doesn't load up as much.. Only way around that would be to have a launch control strategy similar to the AMG MCT...(?)
And I also assume the G2x would either receive the B58TU2 in "O" or "T" spec late 2023 or early 2024 as part of the post LCi(1) update?
