What do the S and L gears mean in the Honda CR-V?

[OSavannah]

S Sport Gear: The sport mode is mainly used for aggressive driving. In this mode, the engine's performance is at its optimal state, but fuel consumption will increase. L Low Gear: Primarily used for long downhill descents or steep uphill climbs. When descending, shifting into a lower gear allows the engine to assist with braking, while during steep ascents, it keeps the engine operating at maximum torque. Here are some additional details: 1. P Parking Gear: Can only be engaged when the vehicle is completely stopped. To exit this gear position, press the brake pedal and turn on the ignition. 2. R Reverse Gear: The reverse gear is located behind the parking gear and can only be engaged when the vehicle is stationary. 3. N Neutral Gear: The neutral gear is positioned after the reverse gear. When engaged, the engine's power is not transmitted to the wheels, typically used for short stops. 4. D Drive Gear: All forward gears can automatically shift up or down, with the shifting timing determined by engine load, individual driving style, and vehicle speed.
