1 Answers
Automobile B gear is an auxiliary braking gear. The following is a detailed introduction to the B gear of the car: 1. The B gear of the car generally appears in new energy vehicles, such as Toyota's hybrid, Nissan's pure electric, etc. 2. The B gear is usually used when the vehicle is gliding for a long distance or going downhill, especially when going downhill continuously. The B gear assists braking through the drag effect generated by the engine or motor. The purpose is to apply engine braking or strong braking after releasing the accelerator pedal on a steep downward slope, thereby preventing the brakes from overheating. 3. Driving the car with the B gear for a long time has a great impact on the fuel economy of the vehicle. If you are not driving on a downhill section, it is recommended to use the D gear.
