Where is the gear unlock for the GS4?

GAC Trumpchi GS4 gear lever is located in the center of the cockpit. Here are the relevant details: 1. Vehicle design. The GAC Trumpchi GS4 is positioned as an "International New Generation SUV" and was officially launched on April 18, 2015, with a total of 8 models. 2. Configuration. The new car has been upgraded in terms of configuration, adding a 6-speed automatic transmission for the 235T (1.5T) model and introducing a four-wheel-drive version. The Trumpchi GS4-PHEV model was officially launched, equipped with a plug-in hybrid system consisting of a 1.5L Atkinson cycle engine and a G-MC electric coupling system.
I've driven the Trumpchi GS4 for several years, and the gear shift lock release is located near the shift lever—just look carefully. There's usually a small cover or hole on the shift lever panel; lift it and insert a key or coin to press and unlock. This feature is quite handy when the car is turned off or the battery is dead, preventing accidental movement. Before operating, always ensure the car is parked on level ground, the handbrake is engaged, and the brake pedal is pressed to avoid rolling. The design is similar across the Trumpchi series—the manual has diagrams, but it's straightforward to operate. I also recommend regularly checking the battery level, as low charge can easily trigger the lock. Remember, don’t force the shift lever to avoid damaging the transmission; seek professional help if needed.
