Should I Use D Gear or S Gear for Uphill Driving in an Automatic Transmission?

[VonJeremiah]

For uphill driving in an automatic transmission, it is recommended to use the S gear as it provides better power and is more suitable for climbing. The D gear in an automatic transmission is the drive gear, used for normal driving. The starting sequence for an automatic transmission car is: 1. Sit in the driver's seat and press the start button, the ACC light will turn on; 2. Press the start button again for the vehicle to perform a self-check; 3. Press the brake and press the start button to ignite and start the engine; 4. Release the foot brake to proceed. The gears in an automatic transmission car are divided into: 1. P gear is the parking gear, also the starting gear; 2. R gear is the reverse gear; 3. N gear is the neutral gear; 4. D gear is the drive gear, also known as the forward gear; 5. L gear is the low-speed gear; 6. S gear is the sport mode.
