What are the P, R, N, D gears respectively?

P gear is the parking gear, R gear is the reverse gear, N gear is the neutral gear, D gear is the drive gear, and L gear is the low gear. Gear 2 is one of the low gears. Here is a detailed introduction to the automatic transmission gears P, R, N, D, 2, L: 1. P (Parking) gear: When the vehicle is parked and not in use, the gear is set here. At this time, the wheels are mechanically locked to prevent rolling. 2. R (Reverse) gear: Used when reversing the vehicle. 3. N (Neutral) gear: Used for temporary stops (e.g., at a red light). This gear indicates neutral. To prevent the vehicle from rolling on a slope, the brake must be engaged. 4. D (Drive) gear: The driving gear. Used when moving forward. 5. 2 (Second) gear: A low-speed gear. Used when starting on a very steep slope or when driving up a steep incline. The principle is that by setting the gear here, the car's gear is automatically limited to only low gears (equivalent to first and second gears in a manual transmission car), ensuring the car obtains maximum forward power. 6. L (Low) gear: A low-speed gear. When going downhill or descending a long slope, setting the gear here limits the car's gear to only the lowest gear (equivalent to first gear in a manual transmission car). This allows the car to use engine power for braking when going downhill, preventing the driver from having to press the brake for extended periods, which could overheat the brake pads and cause danger.
