How Many Pedals Does an Automatic Car Have?
1 Answers
An automatic car has two pedals under the foot: one is the brake pedal, and the other is the accelerator (gas pedal). Here are the relevant introductions: Position: The brake pedal is on the left, and the accelerator pedal is on the right. These two pedals can be controlled with just the right foot, unlike manual transmission cars, which have an additional clutch pedal and require coordination of both feet. It is not because automatic cars only need the right foot to control that there is only one pedal. Function of the Brake Pedal: To force a moving car to decelerate or even stop as required by the driver; to keep a parked car stable under various road conditions (including on slopes); and to maintain a stable speed for a car going downhill. Function of the Accelerator Pedal: The main function of the car accelerator is to speed up the car. Without pressing the accelerator, the car's speed remains at its original, very slow pace. The lower the accelerator is pressed, the greater the fuel intake of the engine, and the faster the car's speed.
