MT, also known as manual transmission, requires the driver to manually shift gears by moving the gear lever to change the gear engagement inside the transmission, which is more fuel-efficient. AT (automatic transmission) consists of a torque converter, planetary gear transmission, and control mechanism. It can automatically adjust speed and torque based on road conditions, allowing the driver to focus entirely on the road without being distracted by gear shifting. Each has its own advantages. Specific details are as follows: 1. MT working principle: The pump wheel and turbine form a working pair, similar to two fans placed opposite each other. The wind from one fan drives the blades of the other, with the wind acting as the medium for kinetic energy transfer. If liquid replaces air as the medium for kinetic energy transfer, the pump wheel will drive the turbine to rotate via the liquid. By adding a guide wheel between the pump wheel and turbine, the speed difference between them can be adjusted to achieve variable speed and torque. 2. AT transmission: AT does not require a clutch for shifting, has fewer gears with larger changes, and provides smooth connections, making it easier to operate. It offers convenience to the driver and a comfortable experience for passengers.

Should You Warm Up Your Car in Cold Weather?

It is necessary to warm up your car in cold weather, but warming up does not mean idling in place. Drivers need to master certain methods, as idling for too long can lead to carbon buildup and increased fuel consumption. The correct way to warm up your car is: start the engine and wait for 30 seconds to 1 minute before driving, but avoid high RPMs and maintain low-speed driving until the engine temperature rises to the normal operating range before resuming regular driving. Winter driving tips: 1. Do not open the windows immediately after starting the car. In winter, temperatures are low, and the windows may freeze. It is recommended to run the car for a while before opening the windows to allow the frozen glass to thaw. Opening the windows while frozen may damage the window lift motor. 2. Control your speed and maintain a safe distance, especially after rain or snow in winter when roads are slippery or even icy. This reduces the friction between the tires and the road, and driving too fast can lead to loss of control or skidding, compromising driving safety.

Can Auto Start-Stop and Auto Hold Be Used Simultaneously?

Auto Hold and Auto Start-Stop can be used together, and when utilized properly, these two functions can also help save fuel. Here is the relevant information: 1. While driving, simply step on the brake pedal, and after the vehicle comes to a complete stop for about two seconds, the engine will automatically shut off. As long as you keep pressing the brake pedal, the engine will remain off. Once you release the brake or turn the steering wheel, the engine will immediately restart, allowing you to step on the accelerator and start moving again—all while remaining in D gear. 2. The Auto Hold system is a function that automatically applies the handbrake for you. Once activated, for example, when stopping at a traffic light, it eliminates the need to manually engage the handbrake. This feature is particularly useful on slopes and during frequent stops and starts. The electronic parking brake is also known as the Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) system.
