How to Save Fuel with a Civic Manual Transmission?
1 Answers
Civic manual transmission fuel-saving techniques include smooth driving and shifting gears, and avoiding unnecessary braking. Manual transmission gears are divided into first, second, third, fourth, and fifth gears. 1st Gear: Used for normal starts or climbing very steep slopes. The speed is generally around 10 km/h. 2nd Gear: Used for low-speed driving or climbing steep slopes. The speed is generally around 20 km/h. 3rd Gear: Generally used at speeds between 20 km/h and 40 km/h, commonly used for city driving. 4th Gear: Can be used at speeds between 40 km/h and 60 km/h. 5th Gear: Used at speeds above 60 km/h. Others: N (Neutral) is used when the car is idling, such as waiting at a traffic light—shift to N and engage the handbrake. R (Reverse) is the reverse gear, engaged after the car has come to a complete stop for reversing.
