Can the Envision switch between D gear and L gear while driving?
1 Answers
The Envision can switch between D gear and L gear at any time without the need to press the brake or perform any other action. Below is relevant information about the Envision: Envision Gear Introduction: P (Parking gear). When parking the car, the gear lever must be shifted into the P position. N (Neutral gear). The N position is equivalent to neutral gear and can be used when starting the car, parking without leaving the vehicle, or during towing. D (Drive gear). During normal driving, place the gear lever in the D position, and the car can automatically shift between forward gears. The D gear is the most commonly used gear. S (Sport mode). In S gear sport mode, the transmission can shift freely, but the shifting timing is delayed, keeping the engine at high RPM for a longer time, allowing the car to run at low gear and high RPM for an extended period, thereby achieving greater torque output and acceleration. While the car is moving, simply push the gear lever into the "S" position. This is typically used for climbing hills or quickly overtaking. D gear and L gear shifting method: No need to press the brake or perform any other action. However, L gear is a limiting gear. When switching from D gear to L gear, it is best to do so at low speed because the car will automatically downshift by 1-2 gears. For example, if D gear is operating at the equivalent of 5th gear, switching to L gear may shift to 3rd or 4th gear. Since the gear is lowered while the speed has not yet decreased, the engine RPM will suddenly rise, which can easily cause the driver to become nervous and lead to unsafe conditions. When the speed is above 40 km/h, there is no need to use L gear because, at the same speed, L gear consumes more fuel than D gear. L gear is mainly used for getting unstuck, low-speed following, climbing steep slopes, or descending long slopes. For regular driving, use D gear.
