How to shift gears in Qoros 5s?
3 Answers
Shift the gear to "R" for reverse gear, and pay attention to safety when reversing. The "N" in the middle is the neutral gear, used to disconnect the engine's power connection. Shift the gear to "D" for the automatic forward gear. The "M" gear is the manual mode forward gear. After parking, remember to engage the handbrake.
I recently got my hands on a Qoros 5s and it took me some time to learn how to shift gears. After getting in the car, first press the brake pedal, then push the start button to fire up the engine. See those letters P, R, N, D on the gear lever? Gently push it to the right to R for reverse, or pull forward to D for drive. Always remember to press the brake before shifting, or it'll get stuck. A common mistake beginners make is shifting before the car comes to a complete stop, which can damage the transmission. When in D, release the brake and gradually press the accelerator for a smooth start. I'd recommend practicing several times to get familiar with the gear positions - soon you'll be driving with ease. For reversing, it's best to use the rearview camera for added safety. Now I commute with it daily, and the controls feel natural and straightforward.
After driving for ten years, the gear shifting in the Qoros 5s feels very intuitive. After starting the car, firmly press the brake pedal and directly move the gear lever to your desired position with your right hand. Push to R for reverse, D for drive, and P for park. No hesitation is needed, as the response is quick and precise. The transmission protection mechanism is excellent, preventing accidental shifts to P while driving. I frequently shift gears in congested urban areas, transitioning smoothly from D to R. Always ensure the car is completely stopped before shifting to avoid gear grinding. A quick glance at the indicator screen to confirm the gear status saves trouble later. This design is efficient and worry-free for daily driving.
