The introduction to the gear positions of Dongfeng Nissan automatic transmission vehicles is as follows: 1. P stands for Parking gear, used when parking; 2. R stands for Reverse gear; 3. N stands for Neutral gear; 4. D stands for Drive gear, where the transmission automatically shifts between gears 1 to 5 based on speed and throttle conditions. Taking the 2020 Dongfeng Nissan Venucia D60 as an example, it belongs to the compact car category with body dimensions of: length 4756mm, width 1803mm, height 1487mm, a wheelbase of 2700mm, a fuel tank capacity of 50l, and a curb weight of 1204kg. The 2020 Dongfeng Nissan Venucia D60 features a MacPherson strut independent front suspension and a torsion beam non-independent rear suspension. It is equipped with a 1.6L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 126ps, a maximum power of 93kw, and a maximum torque of 168nm, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission.
When I first started learning to drive, I used an automatic transmission car from Dongfeng Nissan, which had five main gear positions: P, R, N, D, and L. The P gear is for parking; after stopping the car, you must shift to P to lock the wheels and prevent rolling. The R gear is for reversing, and you must ensure the car is completely stationary before shifting to R to avoid damaging the transmission. The N gear is neutral, useful for relaxing the car at red lights, but avoid using it on slopes as it may cause rolling. The D gear is the normal driving forward gear, used most of the time—just press the accelerator to go, making it worry-free and fuel-efficient. The L gear is the low gear, especially handy for climbing steep hills or controlling speed when going downhill. Driving an automatic is indeed convenient, eliminating the need for manual gear changes, making it easy for beginners to pick up. At first, I often confused N and D, but with more practice, I got the hang of it. I recommend beginners double-check the gear position when parking to ensure safety.
