Is Steering Wheel Gear Shifting Necessary?
1 Answers
Steering wheel gear shifting is necessary. The specific functions are as follows: 1. The paddle shifter is a gear-shifting device installed for semi-automatic clutches in cars. Its function is to shift gears by pulling the paddle shifter without stepping on the clutch pedal. 2. This device is widely used in racing cars. Since the paddle shifters are located behind the steering wheel, shifting is very convenient and efficient. This device is adopted in many rally races, circuit races, and even F1 events. 3. There are two types of paddle shifters: fixed and follow-up. Fixed type: The fixed paddle shifters remain stationary relative to the dashboard, meaning that during steering, the steering wheel rotates while the paddle shifters stay still. Follow-up type: The follow-up paddle shifters remain stationary relative to the steering wheel, meaning that during steering, the paddle shifters rotate together with the steering wheel as a whole.
