What does 3D and 2L mean in an automatic transmission car?
1 Answers
Automatic 3D gear refers to the normal driving gear, while 2L is the low-speed gear. Below is an introduction to the usage scenarios of each gear: P gear is used when parking: The P gear uses a mechanical device to lock the rotating parts of the car. When parking, engage the P gear and also pull the handbrake tightly to completely prevent the car from moving. Note: The P gear should only be used after the car has come to a complete stop, otherwise it may cause damage to the mechanical parts of the automatic transmission. N gear is used for brief stops: When waiting at traffic lights in urban areas or during temporary short stops, shift the automatic transmission car to N gear. Although N gear is indicated as neutral, you should still keep your foot on the brake to prevent the car from rolling on a slope. R gear is used when reversing: Pay special attention to controlling the accelerator pedal when reversing. Note: Never force the gear into R before the car has completely stopped, as this can cause severe damage to the transmission. D gear is the normal driving gear: D gear is called the forward gear or drive gear. When driving in D gear, the automatic transmission car will shift gears automatically based on speed and throttle conditions, making D gear suitable for general road driving. S gear is used for quick overtaking: S gear is also known as the sport mode. In S gear sport mode, the transmission shifts freely, keeping the engine at high RPMs for a longer time and allowing the car to move at high RPMs in lower gears. S gear is also commonly used when climbing slopes.
