An automatic transmission system of a vehicle and a corresponding adaptation method utilize an automatic transmission comprising a hydraulic friction clutch and a controller configured to continuously perform a feedforward adaptation procedure that models wear of the clutch, the feedforward adaptation procedure comprising obtaining a set of operating parameters each indicative of wear of the clutch, model the wear of the clutch based on the set of operating parameters using a clutch wear model, and determine a clutch offset for controlling application of the clutch based on the modeled clutch wear, and control application of the clutch based on the determined clutch offset.
