Which gear is appropriate for automatic transmission at a red light?
1 Answers
For automatic transmission vehicles, when waiting at a red light, it is generally recommended to shift into the N gear, which is the neutral gear. Here is some relevant information: 1. Auto Hold function: However, if the vehicle is equipped with the ATUO-HOLD function (Auto Hold function), when the speed is 0, the vehicle will automatically apply the handbrake, so the driver does not need to perform any gear operation, and the vehicle will not move even if it is in the D gear. 2. Precautions: When the engine starts, the automatic transmission also has restrictions on the gear position. This is an adjustment made by the manufacturer for safety considerations. Generally, the engine can only be started when the gear lever is in the P or N position.
