What does the S gear in an automatic car mean?
1 Answers
The S gear in an automatic car stands for Sport mode, which can be directly engaged when the driver needs rapid acceleration or overtaking. Common gears in an automatic transmission include P, N, R, D, L, S, and M, representing: P for Park, N for Neutral, D for Drive, L for Low gear (also known as Hill Climb gear). The steps to start an automatic car are: 1. Insert the key and turn it to the second ignition position (accessory mode), wait for the system self-check to complete; 2. Shift the gear lever from P to N; 3. Release the brake and start the car's engine; 4. Press the brake pedal and shift the gear lever from N to D, then release the brake and press the accelerator to start moving.
