We usually encounter the situation of overtaking when driving, as long as the auto-transmission car overtakes, just hit the turn signal, and then control the steering wheel to quickly overtake, while the manual car needs to shift gears when overtaking. But on the manual car overtaking in the end should be downshift or upshift this question, many novice drivers do not know what to do, today Xiaobian to give you a good science popularization.
As we all know, overtaking is a very dangerous thing, if you are not careful, it is likely to collide with the vehicle in front, so we must give the car enough power and torque to complete the overtaking when overtaking. Since we need more power and torque when overtaking, should we not be upgraded when overtaking, after all, we usually drive to accelerate.
In fact, in order to get more power and torque when overtaking, we should downshift instead of upshift when overtaking. This is because when we overtake, the lift is actually the operation of the gearbox, and in the gear of the gearbox, the smaller the number, the greater the gear ratio, the greater the torque, and the more power the car. So we have to downshift before we overtake, which is the same reason we have to downshift first when we're uphill.
After talking about the question of whether the manual car overtaking needs to be downshipped or upgraded, the next small editor will tell you about the things that need to be paid attention to when driving a manual car. First of all, when driving a manual transmission car through a waterlogged section, remember not to change gears in the middle. Because for manual transmission cars, the moment of starting and shifting gears is the easiest to turn off. If we stop in the water to shift gears, it is likely to cause the car to stop. Once the car is turned off, we need to start the car in the water, if the water level is relatively deep, the water flow is likely to enter the car's air intake, resulting in engine failure.
Secondly, when driving a manual transmission car, we must learn to control the clutch. The clutch is the core of the manual transmission car, if we do not control the clutch well when driving, it is easy to cause the car to stop. Especially when the car starts, it must be slowly released to release the clutch, if the speed is too fast, the resistance of the engine will suddenly become very large, resulting in the car stalling. And when the speed of the car is in a very slow situation, we must not suddenly release the clutch, otherwise it is easy to cause the engine output power to fail to keep up, resulting in the car stalling. If the rear vehicle does not brake at this time, it is very dangerous.
In addition, when you open the manual transmission car to change gears, you must push it into place. If you do not push into place once when changing gears, it is not only easy to damage the gears, but also lead to poor speed control, resulting in traffic accidents. In addition to pushing into place when changing gears, everyone must remember to step on the clutch to the end. If the clutch is not stepped on to the end, it will affect the life of the gearbox.
Well, today's knowledge points about manual transmission cars are here, do you remember it?
