Hardly.

Ferrari developed the first "automatic sensing" auto-clutch about 15 years ago.

The german truckcranes I sell have been running "automatic clutches"
with their "EAS" or "Electronic Auto Shift" system for a decade or more.

btw: these "auto clutches" are a freak'n maintenance nightmare.
They are great ............ when they work
Forget about anyone but the Stealership being able to work on it either.

Urm, I thought the nissan thing just automatically rev-matched for you, not had a full-on "automatic clutch". Either way, I don't think Nissan is the first to do this.

ReverendDexter is right. It only matches RPMs when shifting gears and downshifting. Eliminating the need for Heel-toe.

Here's a quick vid on it.
