2 Answers
Haval Shenshou gear positions: The 5-speed is for older models, with the classic gear distribution of 135/24 reverse. For the 6-speed, it's 135/246, and the reverse gear is engaged by lifting up and then pulling to the left front. Starting in low gear with first gear: For low-speed starts, first gear is generally used, with an economical speed range of 15-20 km/h. It is recommended not to shift from second to first gear above 18 km/h. Uphill driving in low gear: When driving continuously uphill, it's necessary to use low gears, such as first or second gear, to ensure sufficient vehicle power. The economical speed range for second gear is 25-40 km/h. It is recommended not to shift from third to second gear above 35 km/h. Downhill driving in low gear: When driving continuously downhill, low gears such as second or third gear should be used to prevent excessive speed. This avoids prolonged braking and protects the brake pads. The economical speed range for third gear is 40-60 km/h. It is recommended not to shift from fourth to third gear above 55 km/h.
As an ordinary person who drives urban SUVs year-round, I've experienced the gear position on the Haval Shenshou. It's located in the center console area on the right side of the driver's seat, just below the steering wheel, within easy reach. During daily driving, shifting gears is super convenient - I can move between P, D, or R gears without moving my right hand much, no need to stretch my arm, and it's fine even when my body naturally turns sideways. The position is designed with ergonomics in mind, making gear changes smooth and effortless whether in traffic jams or highway driving. I remember last time when I drove it for an outing in mountainous areas with many winding roads - the clear gear feedback prevented me from getting distracted by looking down to find the gear. Compared with other SUVs, Haval Shenshou positions it at just the right height, suitable for users of different heights, with overall high user-friendliness.
