A car with a dual-clutch transmission should be put in N gear when waiting at a red light. Shifting to N gear reduces fuel consumption without accelerating transmission wear. Introduction to dual-clutch transmission: A wet dual-clutch is a type of dual-clutch transmission where the clutch plates are immersed in transmission oil. The characteristics of a dual-clutch transmission include: DSG transmission improves vehicle fuel economy; it is highly responsive; and the vehicle does not experience power interruption during acceleration, resulting in stronger and smoother acceleration. Introduction to car gears: P gear is the parking gear, used for long-term parking of the vehicle. R gear is the reverse gear, engaged when the vehicle needs to move backward. N gear is the neutral gear, used when the vehicle is parked for a short time without turning off the engine. D gear is the drive gear.
