What is Neutral Gear?
1 Answers
Neutral gear: It refers to shifting the transmission lever to the neutral position in the gearbox. Here is some extended information: 1. Neutral gear: It is a gear position in the transmission. Neutral gear typically means the vehicle's gear lever is not engaged in any forward or reverse gear, completely disconnecting the transmission from the drive wheels. 2. Manual transmission neutral: It is located in the middle position, while the neutral gear in an automatic transmission is marked with an "N" and is commonly referred to as the N gear. When in N gear, manual transmission vehicles can coast, but automatic transmissions strictly prohibit coasting in N gear, as it can significantly impact the engine, transmission, and driving safety. 3. Usage scenarios: Generally, when waiting at a traffic light, you can shift to N gear or P gear to reduce the load on the engine and transmission, achieving the goal of saving fuel.
