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.

Let's talk about that E/S indicator! 510 might refer to a specific model, but the focus is on the E/S switching function. Eco mode is like a docile sheep, gentle and fuel-efficient; Sport mode transforms into a cheetah with super-fast throttle response. In the city with frequent red lights, switch to E mode for smooth and gentle starts. On weekend mountain runs, definitely switch to S mode—the engine roars with excitement, and the tachometer needle heads straight for the redline. The toggle button is usually near the gear shift, and some cars even change colors on the dashboard as a reminder. Just remember not to keep S mode on all the time—fuel consumption can increase by 20-30%, and your wallet won't thank you!

Having repaired cars for twenty years, I've seen countless models with E/S markings. E stands for Economy mode, where the transmission shifts gears around 2000 RPM, saving fuel and running quietly. S for Sport mode keeps the engine revving up to 4000 RPM before shifting, delivering stronger power but with higher fuel consumption. The switching between these modes is controlled by the TCU computer and can be done without stopping. I recommend using E mode in the city to reduce engine load and extend its lifespan; use S mode for long trips or uphill driving to avoid frequent gear shifts and overheating of the transmission. Remember to maintain the transmission fluid regularly, otherwise, the switching may become sluggish.
