VW DSG is superior in everyway but during start/stops and the slightly higher weight. When I drove my friend's Gti the start/stop during traffic makes me want to pull my hair out. Tap the pedal slightly harder only and the car thinks u wanna go vrooom vrooom lol. It also behaves the same when going up hill sometimes. Not all DSG are the same though, the one in ford feista is just dumb and can't predict well what the driver wants and deosn't shift as fast.

CVT is just for smoothness. Good for unker drivers.
