Can You Keep Using S Gear on the Highway?
1 Answers
You can keep using S gear on the highway. Although S gear can provide the car with stronger forward momentum in a short time, the cost is very high, as it increases the car's fuel injection volume. Higher fuel injection leads to increased fuel consumption, and prolonged use of S gear may cause significant damage to the engine. Below are the differences between S gear and D gear: 1. D Gear: As the forward gear, D gear can automatically shift up and down. If the vehicle maintains a constant speed and does not require overtaking or climbing, D gear is entirely sufficient. 2. S Gear: In emergencies, such as urgent overtaking or climbing steep slopes, S gear should be used. S gear is the sports mode in a car, enabling the vehicle to gain powerful momentum in a short time, helping drivers overtake or climb slopes smoothly.
