Introduction to RAV4 Automatic Transmission Gears?
1 Answers
Toyota RAV4 automatic transmission gears and their functions are as follows. P gear: Parking/Starting the engine, R gear: Reverse, N gear: Neutral, D gear: Normal driving. To improve fuel efficiency and reduce noise, please place the gear shift lever in the D position during normal driving. M gear: 8-speed sport sequential shift mode driving. By operating the gear shift lever, using the M position to select the gear range can provide appropriate engine braking force. Gear range functions: 1. You can choose from 8 levels of acceleration force and engine braking force. 2. Compared to higher gear ranges, lower gear ranges provide greater acceleration force and engine braking force, and the engine speed will also increase. 3. If accelerating in gear ranges 1 to 7, the gear range may automatically upshift based on the engine speed. 4. When the vehicle speed decreases, unless the gear shift lever is operated, the gear range will automatically downshift. 5. When the vehicle speed and engine speed are too low, even if the gear shift lever is operated, the gear range may not switch.
