What is the minimum speed for third gear?
1 Answers
Third gear speed should not be lower than 20Km/h. First gear is the starting gear, used when the vehicle begins moving. It shares similar gear ratio and performance characteristics with reverse gear, thus prolonged high-speed operation is not recommended. Generally, you can shift to second gear once the vehicle gains momentum. Second gear serves as the passing gear, primarily used for navigating complex road conditions such as sharp-angle (90-degree) turns without special obstacles, crowded urban areas, steep slopes, and bumpy roads. Gear shifting techniques: Smoothness: When engaging a new gear, properly coordinate clutch release with timely throttle application for smooth transitions. Precision: Body movements should be coordinated and accurate - sloppy operation creates strong jerking sensations that degrade driving experience. Swiftness: Gear changes should be quick to enhance vehicle smoothness, reduce kinetic energy loss, and improve fuel efficiency. Timeliness: Perform proper gear shifts at appropriate moments - neither too early nor too late.
