Car gear letters represent the following: 1. P Gear: Stands for Park Gear, generally used when the engine is turned off and the vehicle is parked. 2. N Gear: Stands for Neutral Gear, typically used for short stops, such as waiting at a traffic light. 3. L Gear: Stands for Low Gear, also known as Hill Climbing Gear, which is equivalent to the 1st gear in a manual transmission and is used when climbing hills. 4. D Gear: Stands for Drive Gear, used when moving forward and is the most frequently used gear. 5. S Gear: Stands for Sport Gear, referred to as Sport Mode in many models. Engaging the S Gear keeps the engine at higher RPMs, increasing torque output for greater power, commonly used when overtaking.
