Can a manual transmission skip gears when upshifting?
1 Answers
Manual transmission can skip gears when upshifting. Here are the details: 1. Skipping gears means you have to accelerate hard: rapidly increasing engine speed in a short time, which puts a heavy burden on the engine and is not beneficial. 2. Sudden acceleration will also reduce ride comfort: in contrast, smooth acceleration with sequential upshifting will result in a steady speed increase, causing no damage to the engine and providing better ride comfort. Here are some additional details: 1. Introduction: A manual transmission, also known as a manual gearbox, requires manually shifting the gear lever to change the gear engagement inside the transmission. 2. Function: It changes the gear ratio to achieve speed variation.
