How to Use the L Gear?
1 Answers
L Gear usage: It is used when going up or down steep slopes. After shifting into L gear, the transmission will maintain a lower gear without upshifting. When the car is in a lower gear, the wheel torque increases, which is more conducive to climbing. When going downhill, shifting into L gear can utilize engine braking to slow down the car. L gear is a low-speed mode; generally, transmissions with L gear have L1, L2, and L3 gears. In this mode, the transmission limits the gear to these lower gears (1 to 3), providing better traction. Typically, automatic transmission vehicles have gears such as P (Park), R (Reverse), N (Neutral), D (Drive), and S (Sport).
