How to Drive an Automatic Volkswagen?
2 Answers
Method for driving an automatic Volkswagen: Start the vehicle with the gear in P or N position. Most models require simultaneously pressing the brake pedal, which is primarily a safety precaution against accidents. After starting, shift to D gear and press the accelerator to move forward. There's no need to change gears at traffic lights; simply hold the brake. For longer stops, shift to P gear. Volkswagen brand sedan models include: FAW-Volkswagen, Magotan, Sagitar, Golf, Jetta, Volkswagen CC, Bora, C-TREK, Golf Sportsvan, etc. The FAW-Volkswagen Bora is positioned as a compact car with body dimensions of 4663mm in length, 1815mm in width, and 1462mm in height.
When I first started learning to drive an automatic transmission Volkswagen, I found it quite simple. First, get in the car, sit properly, and fasten the seatbelt. Then, press the brake pedal with your right foot to ensure the car won't move. Next, insert the key to start the engine, or if it's keyless, just press the start button. After that, take a look at the gear shift—Volkswagen cars usually have the PRNDS positions. Before moving off, keep pressing the brake, shift from P (Park) to D (Drive), which is the forward gear, and gently release the brake to let the car move slowly. While driving, lightly press the accelerator to speed up, and ease off to slow down. When stopping at a red light, simply press the brake to stop in place without changing gears. Upon reaching your destination, first press the brake to come to a complete stop, then shift back to P (Park), engage the handbrake, turn off the engine, and exit the car. Don't forget to lock it! When I was new, I practiced a few times to get familiar with it—the key is to stay relaxed and not nervous. Any beginner can master it.
