2 Answers
The gears of the Sagitar automatic transmission include: R for reverse, P for parking, L for low gear, N for neutral, E for economy mode, and S for sport mode driving. Taking the 2018 Sagitar as an example, it belongs to the compact car category with body dimensions of 4753mm in length, 1800mm in width, and 1462mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2731mm and a fuel tank capacity of 50 liters. The 2018 Sagitar features a front MacPherson independent suspension and a rear multi-link independent suspension. It is equipped with a 1.2L turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 116PS, a maximum power of 85kW, and a maximum torque of 175Nm, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission.
As a Sagitar owner, I've been driving the automatic transmission version for several years, and the gear design is quite user-friendly. The standard gears include P (Park), used when parking; R (Reverse), essential for backing up and parking; N (Neutral), handy for temporary stops like at red lights; and D (Drive), for moving forward, making city driving effortless. Some versions also feature S (Sport) mode, offering a thrilling acceleration, perfect for highways or when you want to spice up your drive. Additionally, the manual mode, operated via the gear lever or steering wheel paddles, simulates manual shifting, providing excellent control on steep slopes or winding mountain roads. Personally, I find automatics much more convenient than manuals, especially in traffic jams where frequent shifting isn't required. However, remember to engage the handbrake before shifting to P when parking on a slope to avoid stressing the transmission. Regular maintenance checks on the shifting mechanism are also crucial to ensure the longevity of the transmission.
