Should You Start an Automatic Car in P or N Gear?
1 Answers
Automatic cars can be started in either P or N gear. Here is some relevant information about automatic transmissions: 1. Definition: An automatic transmission typically refers to a car's automatic gear-shifting mechanism. While driving, the automatic transmission's control system selects the appropriate gear based on the engine's speed and load, replacing the driver's subjective judgment of timing and gear-shifting operations. 2. Automatic Principle: In an automatic transmission, the engine's power is transmitted through the gearbox, which is also a key factor affecting fuel consumption. Generally, an automatic transmission consumes over 10% more fuel than a manual transmission. Whether manual or automatic, the more gears a transmission has, the more fuel-efficient it tends to be.
