Under what circumstances is a paddle shifter used? For general family cars and scooters, the most common situation of applying paddle shifts is "lane change". Overtaking generally requires a lot of energy to output out and accelerate, which can be completed according to the downshift for manual gears.
However, the automatic car wants to downshift to the manual way of shifting to S, M or L gear, and then go to the downshift. That's a particularly cumbersome and unsafe way to actually operate, especially on high speeds. The paddle shifter can be downshifted by tapping on the pulling plate on the steering wheel of the car at the same time, which in general can improve the ease of use.
There is no application taboo in the paddle shift, and its effect is equivalent to modifying the manual mode on the automatic transmission, so that the actual operation of safe driving is smoother and faster. It's just that the paddle shifters are not suitable for some car buyers and vehicles. For example, the lack of understanding of gear shifting: gear shifting is focused on opportunities, different gears will generally appear to match the energy output, if the buyer does not understand this aspect and arbitrarily apply the pulling piece to change gears, it will increase the probability of road traffic accidents.
Transmission response is slow: for the general family car, the vast majority of models are the pursuit of safe driving smoothness, the efficiency of this car gear shift is generally too slow, if the transmission response is slow to apply the pull-out shift, the actual effect is very tight.
Good car power pairing: although the gear shift paddle can complete the manual shift, but the gearbox or automatic transmission, people do not have a computer to control the gear position accurately, so the car power pairing is good, the practical significance of the application of the paddle shift is not too big, but it will consume more fuel.
