Do you need to press the brake when shifting from D to S in an automatic transmission?

When shifting from D to S in an automatic transmission, you do not need to press the brake. The method for using S mode is as follows: 1. Shift the gear to D, then push the gear lever to the right; 2. Use forward and backward movements of the gear lever to shift gears—pushing forward increases the gear, while pulling back decreases the gear; 3. Push the lever back to the D position to switch between S and D modes. S mode is the sport mode of the car. In S sport mode, the transmission can shift freely, delaying the shift timing to keep the engine at high RPM for a longer period. This allows the car to maintain high RPM at lower gears for extended periods, resulting in greater torque output and acceleration.
