Which gear is reverse in an automatic transmission car?
1 Answers
In an automatic transmission car, the R gear is the reverse gear. Generally, there are six gear positions in an automatic transmission car, from top to bottom: P (Park), R (Reverse), N (Neutral), D (Drive), S (Sport mode), and L (Low gear). An automatic transmission eliminates the need for the driver to manually shift gears, as the vehicle automatically selects the appropriate gear based on driving speed and traffic conditions. Driving an automatic transmission car using only P, R, N, and D gears can fully meet the needs of general driving. However, in some special driving environments, other functional gears may be required. There are three common types of automatic transmissions in cars: hydraulic automatic transmission, mechanical continuously variable automatic transmission, and electronically controlled mechanical automatic transmission.
