Abstract
A dual clutch transmission for a motor vehicle. A gearwheel set switchable via switching elements, which form eight wheel planes and which are respectively assigned to a first sub-transmission and to a second sub-transmission, among which each sub-transmission is provided with an input shaft and both sub-transmissions are provided with a common output shaft. The input shafts, which are coaxial to each other, can be alternately activated via a load-shiftable clutch, and the even forward gears are assigned to the first sub-transmission, while the odd forward gears are assigned to the second sub-transmission, which are shiftable during a gear switch via the switching elements. The input shafts are free of the rotationally fixed gearwheels of the wheel planes arranged thereupon.
