To clear difference among each, this is the simplest definition of each:
VVT-i has variable valve timing only on intake valves (accomplished through constant cam phasing).
Dual VVT-i has variable valve timing on both intake and exhaust valves (accomplished through constant cam phasing of both intake/exhaust).
VVTL-i has variable valve timing only on intake valves + variable cam lift on both intake and exhaust cams.

That's what I said, I said vvt-i doesn't have lift. The seamless part is of a new tech that Toyota is calling maybe
"Valve Matic" to go against Honda's new A-vtec where all kinds of valve durations can occur (including Lift) at any particuler rpm.
