Should the clutch be released quickly when shifting gears?

[JasonFitz]

When shifting gears, the clutch should not be released quickly. Here is an introduction about operating the clutch: 1. Clutch: The clutch should be pressed quickly and released slowly, and this should be based on actual conditions and road judgment. When the clutch is pressed, the engine's transmission device disconnects from the wheels, and the engine's power will not be transmitted to the wheels to drive the car. When the clutch is released, the engine's transmission device connects with the wheels, and the power is transmitted to the wheels, allowing the car to move naturally. Therefore, when starting the car, especially on a slope, to prevent the vehicle from stalling due to insufficient torque, the clutch is generally released slowly to ensure that the engine can maintain the minimum speed and continue running when the torque is sufficient. 2. Suggestion: It is recommended to release the clutch slowly to reduce the impact on the vehicle. When the car's speed reaches a certain high gear, the clutch can be released a bit faster. This does not affect smoothness and can also utilize the engine's deceleration function to achieve the effect of slowing down the vehicle.
