1 Answers
Manual transmissions will not be discontinued in the future. The reasons are as follows: 1. There is demand: As long as there is consumer demand, manufacturers naturally will not discontinue production. 2. Lower failure and maintenance rates: Compared to automatic transmissions, manual transmissions have lower failure rates and naturally lower maintenance costs. 3. Driving pleasure: Manual transmissions offer unique driving enjoyment. Relevant information about manual transmission vehicles is as follows: 1. Manual transmission (MT): Also known as manual gearbox, it requires manually shifting the gear lever to change the gear meshing device inside the transmission, thereby altering the gear ratio to achieve speed change. 2. Composition: Manual transmissions mainly consist of gears and shafts, achieving speed and torque changes through different gear combinations; whereas AT (automatic transmission) consists of a torque converter, planetary gears, and a hydraulic control system, achieving speed and torque changes through hydraulic transmission and gear combinations.
