Manual transmission and automatic transmission differ in that manual transmission requires pressing the clutch when starting. Introduction to automatic transmission: As the name suggests, it does not require the driver to manually shift gears. The vehicle will automatically select the appropriate gear based on the driving speed and traffic conditions. Generally, automatic transmission cars have six gear positions, from top to bottom: P, R, N, D, S, L. Introduction to manual transmission: A car that uses a manual gear-shifting mechanical transmission (also known as manual transmission, MT) to adjust speed. That is, the gear lever must be manually moved to change the gear meshing position inside the transmission, thereby changing the gear ratio to achieve speed adjustment. The gear lever can only be shifted when the clutch is pressed.
