1 Answers
The economical speed for second gear in a manual transmission is 25-40 km/h. Starting in low gear: Generally, first gear is used, with an economical speed of 15-20 km/h. Uphill gear selection: When driving continuously uphill, lower gears (1st or 2nd) should be used. The economical speed for 2nd gear is 25-40 km/h to ensure sufficient vehicle power. Downhill gear selection: When driving continuously downhill, lower gears (2nd or 3rd) should be used. The economical speed for 3rd gear is 40-60 km/h to prevent excessive speed and avoid prolonged brake usage, thus protecting the brake pads.
