What is the Reverse Gear Letter?

[OAmir]

The letter for the car reverse gear is R, which stands for 'reverse' in English, meaning backward direction. When using the R gear in daily driving, it's important to note that you must wait until the car has completely stopped before shifting into R gear. Otherwise, it may cause certain damage to the transmission, and over time, it can affect the car's braking performance. Below is an introduction to the correct usage of the car reverse gear: 1. Manual transmission models: After stopping the vehicle, first press the clutch and brake, then shift into reverse gear, followed by a half-clutch and slight throttle operation. 2. Automatic transmission models: For automatic cars, you need to press the brake pedal and press the safety button on the gear lever or push down the gear shift lever to engage or disengage the R gear. Both P (Park) and N (Neutral) gears can be directly switched to R gear, but when switching between forward gears and R gear, you should pause at the N gear to reduce the impact of reverse oil flow in the transmission during gear shifting.
