What are the effects of pressing the accelerator in P gear on the car?
1 Answers
Pressing the accelerator in P gear will not harm the car. P gear is the parking gear of the car, at which time the transmission shaft of the gearbox is locked, and the engine is separated from the gearbox, so the power will not be transmitted to the transmission shaft. The engine is just idling and consuming fuel, the gear mechanism is idling, and the car will not move. The following is a related introduction about P gear: 1. The "P" in P gear comes from the first letter of the English word "park," so in the gear positions of automatic transmission cars, P gear is the identifier for the parking gear. 2. P gear is a gear evolved from N gear. In addition to putting the gearbox in neutral mode, it also has a pawl inside the gearbox that locks the gear on the output shaft to form a mechanical lock, thereby securing the drive axle to fix the vehicle in a stationary or slightly moving state. 3. Although P gear appears very frequently in automatic transmission models, it is not one of the three standard gear positions of automatic transmission cars, because some models use N gear with an auxiliary braking device for parking, but its basic working principle is almost the same as that of P gear.
