Are all cars automatic transmission now?
1 Answers
Not all cars today are automatic transmission. Basically, there are two types of transmissions for most models: automatic and manual. Nowadays, many people are very keen on automatic transmission models. Compared to manual transmissions, their advantage lies in being easier to drive. Automatic transmissions do not have a clutch, and both the accelerator and brake pedals are operated with the right foot. When driving, you only need to hold the steering wheel with your hands and control the accelerator and brake with your right foot. Here is the relevant introduction: 1. Automatic transmission cars: Automatic transmission cars usually use hydraulic transmission devices to replace the mechanical clutch of manual transmission cars, so there is no clutch pedal. When the engine speed is low, the torque transmitted by the fluid is limited and insufficient to push the car forward. When the gear lever is placed in the forward gear and the brake pedal is released, as the throttle is applied and the engine speed increases, the transmitted torque increases, pushing the car forward. 2. Manual transmission cars: Cars that use a manual shift mechanical transmission (also known as manual transmission, MT) to adjust speed. That is, the gear lever must be moved manually to change the gear meshing position inside the transmission, thereby changing the gear ratio to achieve the purpose of shifting. The gear lever can only be moved when the clutch is depressed.
