That's not what the article said. For clarity it should have been written like this.
As for dual-clutch transmissions, Quintus said, "The advantages they once offered over an automatic, such as their lighter weight and superior shift speed, were no longer apparent".
Audi has also determined that dual-clutch transmissions can’t reliability handle high-torque loads and is reverting to automatic transmissions for its own high-performance cars.
