P gear is the parking gear: used for long-term parking of the vehicle; 2. R gear is the reverse gear: engaged when the vehicle needs to move backward; 3. N gear is the neutral gear: engaged when the vehicle is parked for a short time without turning off the engine; 4. S gear is the sport mode: makes the vehicle drive more sportily; 5. M gear refers to the manual mode: when the gear lever is shifted to M gear, gear shifting is done manually by the driver; 6. L gear is the low gear: used when the car is moving slowly.
