What is the difference between learning C1 and C2 driving licenses?

[GenevieveAnn]

Differences between learning C1 and C2: 1. Permitted vehicle types: C2 permits driving small and mini automatic passenger cars, as well as light and mini automatic trucks; C1, in addition to the vehicles permitted by C2, also allows driving specialized mini, small, and light-duty vehicles. Simply put, C2 only allows driving automatic transmission vehicles, while C1 permits both automatic and manual transmission vehicles, offering a wider range of permitted vehicle types. 2. Learning cost: Many people think that the C1 license is harder to obtain, so it should be more expensive than C2. The opposite is true because automatic transmission vehicles are more expensive than manual ones, and their maintenance costs are higher, so the registration fee for learning C2 is generally higher than that for C1. 3. Operation difficulty: C1 corresponds to manual transmission, involving complex operations like gear shifting and clutch control, especially during hill starts and traffic light starts, where stalling is common; C2 corresponds to automatic transmission, without a clutch pedal, only brake and accelerator pedals, eliminating concerns about stalling.
