What does the L gear in Teana mean?
1 Answers
Teana's L gear refers to the low gear in the vehicle's transmission. In this gear, the transmission is generally locked in the low gear range, meaning it shifts between 1st and 2nd gears. The usage scenarios for the L gear are as follows: Using L gear when going uphill: When climbing a slope, the L gear locks the transmission in a low gear, preventing frequent shifting. This keeps the vehicle in a low-speed, high-torque state, providing more power during the climb. Using L gear when going downhill: When descending a slope, the L gear also locks the transmission in a low gear. By engaging a low gear during descent, the engine's power can be used for braking, reducing the burden on the braking system and avoiding safety hazards caused by brake fade due to overheating.
