Should You Start the Car in P or N Gear?

[CharlieFitz]

Actually, there is no difference between starting the car in P gear or N gear. This is because the structural principles of P gear and N gear are basically the same, except that P gear has an additional set of pawl gear mechanism compared to N gear. Whether in P gear or N gear, the connection between the transmission input shaft and output shaft is cut off, preventing the output shaft from rotating. The only difference is that in P gear, the pawl gear mechanism at the end of the output shaft locks it in place. Here is some related information about car gears: 1. For manual transmissions, first gear is typically used for speeds below 20 km/h. 2. Second gear is used for speeds between 20 km/h and 35 km/h. 3. Third gear is for speeds between 35 km/h and 45 km/h. 4. Fourth gear is for speeds between 45 km/h and 60 km/h. 5. Fifth gear is for speeds above 60 km/h, and if the vehicle has a sixth gear, it can be engaged at around 80 km/h.
