1 Answers
The difference between manual mode in automatic transmission and pure manual transmission lies in the gearbox: manual mode in automatic transmission uses an automatic gearbox, while pure manual transmission uses a manual gearbox. The manual mode in automatic transmission combines manual shifting and automatic shifting, whereas manual transmission requires manually shifting the gear lever to change the gear engagement inside the gearbox to achieve speed variation. Operation of manual mode in automatic transmission: 1. D is the drive gear: used when driving on the road; 2. R is the reverse gear: must be engaged only after the car has completely stopped; 3. P is the parking gear: used when the car is stationary and must be used together with the handbrake; 4. L is the low gear: provides greater power output; 5. N is the neutral gear: used when the car is temporarily parked; 6. W is the snow gear: allows driving on slippery or snowy roads; 7. E is the economy gear: used on smooth road sections; 8. S is the sport gear: used on highways.
