What is the optimal RPM for shifting gears in a car?
1 Answers
It is generally appropriate to shift gears when the car's RPM is in the range of 2000~2500. This range allows for better matching between the gear and the vehicle's power output, while also achieving fuel efficiency. Here is some additional information regarding RPM and gear shifting: 1. The shifting RPM can typically be chosen between 1500-2500rpm. If the goal is fuel economy, shifting around 1500-1800rpm is advisable. 2. For lower gears, it is acceptable to increase the shifting RPM to around 2000rpm. During the break-in period, it is best to reduce the shifting RPM. 3. If you want better performance in terms of power, shifting around 2000-2500rpm is recommended.
