When going uphill in first gear, the throttle can be pressed to 2000-2500 RPM, which corresponds to 10-20 km/h. Here are some relevant details: 1. Manual transmission: Typically, it consists of 5 forward gears + 1 reverse gear. Older cars used to have 4+1 gears, while some high-end manual cars now feature 6 forward gears + 1 reverse gear. Generally, more gears allow for more flexible speed control and better utilization of the car's power, leading to improved fuel efficiency. 2. Gear usage: Most manual transmission cars have 5 forward gears, 1 reverse gear, with neutral in the middle. Use 1st gear for starting; 2nd gear for speeds between 20-40 km/h; 3rd gear for 40-60 km/h; 4th gear for 60-75 km/h; and 5th gear for speeds above 75 km/h.
