Will an Automatic Transmission Car Move Without Accelerating?
1 Answers
An automatic transmission car will move without pressing the accelerator. When starting an automatic vehicle, regardless of how quickly or slowly you release the brake, the car will move forward without stalling. This convenience is achieved by a special power transmission device in the automatic transmission called the torque converter. Here’s some additional information: Torque Converter: The torque converter is located between the engine and the transmission, in the same position as the clutch in a manual transmission. It is bolted to the engine's flywheel, and the power from the engine is transmitted sequentially through the torque converter's impeller, stator, and turbine to the transmission input shaft. The secret behind the vehicle's ability to creep forward lies within these three components.
