What are the effects of flooring the accelerator in 1st gear?
1 Answers
Here are the effects of flooring the accelerator in 1st gear: 1. Aggressively pressing the accelerator consumes a large amount of fuel. Especially during the starting phase, flooring the accelerator increases clutch wear, puts additional load on the transmission, accelerates tire wear, and is generally detrimental to the vehicle. The consequences of harsh acceleration are also reflected in significantly increased fuel consumption. Experts estimate: 10 rapid starts waste approximately over 120CC of fuel, which could power an ordinary car for more than one kilometer. 2. If throttle control is consistently rough, keeping the car in a state of rapid acceleration can easily cause engine overheating, leading to radiator boiling and other engine malfunctions. Additionally, this driving habit makes passengers uncomfortable and may lead them to question the driver's skills.
