Are Large Trucks Equipped with Automatic Transmissions?
1 Answers
Large trucks do have automatic transmission models. Here are the specific details about large truck transmissions: 1. Smoothness: Trucks have more gears, which means the speed ratio difference between gears is smaller. This results in less jerking during gear changes and a smoother ride. Additionally, most large trucks use diesel engines, which operate at lower RPMs, making more gears more convenient for vehicle control. 2. Rationality: It ensures that the engine can stay within the economical RPM range at different driving speeds, thereby saving fuel and reducing unnecessary fuel consumption. 3. Power Stability: Most large trucks are diesel-powered and operate at lower RPMs, typically between 1,000 RPM and 2,500 RPM. Having more gears allows for stable power output under various road conditions.
