Description

The global Wet Dual-Clutch Transmission Fluid market size is predicted to grow from US$ 418 million in 2025 to US$ 567 million in 2032; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.5% from 2026 to 2032.

In 2025, the global production of wet dual-clutch transmission fluid is approximately 83,000 tons, with an average selling price of approximately US$5,150 per ton. Single-line production capacity is approximately 2,000-5,000 tons per year, with an average gross profit margin of approximately 15-25%. Wet dual-clutch transmission fluid refers to the lubricating oil specifically used in wet dual-clutch transmissions. It is a special fluid used to lubricate and cool the clutch plates in wet dual-clutch transmissions and participates in the shifting process, ensuring smooth operation and reliability of the transmission.

The upstream core raw materials for wet dual-clutch transmission fluid include base oil and composite additive packages (containing friction modifiers, anti-wear agents, antioxidants, corrosion inhibitors, viscosity index improvers, and other special chemicals) that determine its performance. Its downstream applications are directly in the automotive manufacturing and aftermarket repair industries, specifically serving passenger cars and some commercial vehicles equipped with wet dual-clutch transmissions. It is used throughout the entire vehicle manufacturing process, from initial filling at the assembly line to authorized 4S dealership after-sales service systems and independent automotive repair and maintenance markets, ensuring smooth shifting, heat dissipation, and long-term reliable operation of the transmission.

The market for wet dual-clutch transmission fluid has been driven in recent years by the growth of the global automotive industry, particularly the increasing demand for high-performance, sports, and luxury vehicles. As dual-clutch transmission technology matures, wet dual-clutch transmissions are becoming standard equipment in many new models due to their efficient shifting performance, lower fuel consumption, and enhanced driving experience. Especially in regions such as Europe, the Americas, and Asia, the use of wet dual-clutch transmissions is becoming increasingly widespread, thus driving up the demand for related lubricants.

In terms of market segmentation, wet dual-clutch transmission fluids are mainly divided into two categories: synthetic oils and mineral oils. Synthetic oils, due to their superior high-temperature resistance, oxidation resistance, and long service life, are widely used in high-end and sports vehicles, while mineral oils are more commonly used in ordinary passenger cars. It is expected that with the gradual decrease in the cost of synthetic oils, more mid-to-high-end models will adopt high-performance wet dual-clutch transmission fluids.

Furthermore, increasingly stringent environmental regulations and higher fuel efficiency requirements are driving the research and development and application of low-viscosity, long-life lubricants. Major lubricant brands, such as Shell, Mobil, and Total, are continuously launching specialized oils that meet the requirements of original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to satisfy the strict performance standards of automotive manufacturers.
