What are the gears in a manual transmission car?
1 Answers
Manual transmission cars have gears divided into 1st gear, 2nd gear, 3rd gear, 4th gear, 5th gear, and R gear, where 1st to 5th gears are forward gears, and R gear is the reverse gear. Below is an introduction to each gear: 1. 1st gear is the starting gear; the car should start in 1st gear when idling. The speed range for 1st gear is 0km to 15km, and it is also used for uphill and downhill driving to control speed using the engine's traction. 2. 2nd gear is engaged after starting with 1st gear, with a speed range of 10km to 25km. 3. 3rd gear is engaged after slightly accelerating in 2nd gear. Engaging 3rd gear means the car begins normal speed driving, with a speed range of 20km to 45km. 4. 4th gear is the highest gear for most urban road driving, with a speed range of 40km to 60km. 5. 5th gear is engaged when the speed reaches the necessary level for maintaining high-speed driving, with a speed range starting from 60km. 6. R gear is the reverse gear, used when reversing the car.
