What does the 510 gear e/s mean?
2 Answers
510 gear e is the normal mode, and s is the sport mode. Below are the classification and selection of car driving modes: Classification of car driving modes: They are divided into eco mode, comfort mode, and sport mode. Selection of car driving modes: In eco mode, the throttle response is not as sensitive, and the transmission shifts up at relatively low RPMs. In comfort mode, the vehicle's throttle response is slightly more sensitive than in eco mode. In sport mode, the transmission delays shifting until the engine reaches the redline, the throttle response is very sensitive, and the engine maintains a relatively high RPM.
I've been driving automatic transmission cars for over a decade, so I'm very familiar with the E/S in this 510 gearbox. E stands for Economy mode, where the car shifts gears earlier to maintain lower RPMs, making it particularly fuel-efficient—perfect for daily commuting. S is Sport mode, where the transmission keeps the engine at higher RPMs before shifting, delivering more aggressive power and a strong push-back sensation when overtaking. Usually, there's a button near the gear lever to switch modes, and you can press it while driving without stopping. I think this design is quite clever: use E for fuel savings in traffic and S for a thrilling ride on the highway—two modes in one car for ultimate convenience. Some cars even display the current mode on the dashboard, allowing you to monitor your driving status at all times.
