What is the difference between manual transmission and manual-automatic transmission?
1 Answers
Manual-automatic transmission and manual transmission differ in their shifting methods: manual-automatic transmission uses an up-push to shift up and a down-push to shift down, while manual transmission employs clutch shifting. Advantages of manual-automatic transmission cars: 1. Manual-automatic cars are easy to operate, and beginners won't stall when starting on a slope. 2. They can satisfy the driver's desire for manual shifting. 3. Combining automatic and manual transmission provides drivers with the best of both worlds. Disadvantages of manual-automatic transmission cars equipped with manual mode: 1. It can inadvertently switch to manual mode, which at high speeds can easily cause high-speed low-gear situations, damaging the transmission. 2. Higher costs. Cars equipped with automatic transmissions are significantly more expensive to purchase than pure manual cars and are less fuel-efficient compared to pure manuals. 3. Automatic transmissions are more complex than pure manual cars. They require better maintenance and are harder to repair when broken.
