1 Answers
Starting an automatic transmission car requires pressing the brake. Detailed information about driving an automatic transmission is as follows: 1. An automatic transmission does not require the driver to manually shift gears; the vehicle will automatically select the appropriate gear based on the driving speed and traffic conditions. Generally, automatic transmission cars have six gear positions, from top to bottom: P, R, N, D, S, L. 2. For general driving needs, an automatic transmission car only requires the use of the parking gear (P), reverse gear (R), neutral gear (N), and drive gear (D). 3. The driver only needs to control the speed using the accelerator pedal. Common types of automatic transmissions used in cars include: hydraulic automatic transmission, hydrostatic automatic transmission, electric automatic transmission, stepped mechanical automatic transmission, and continuously variable mechanical automatic transmission.
