With the popularization of automobiles and the improvement of modern people's living standards, private cars have become one of the important ways for the public to travel. In the process of driving a private car, many people may ignore or not understand an important operation - N gear. In fact, the correct use of N-gear can not only extend the life of the car, but also improve driving safety. Therefore, I highly recommend that everyone take this little gear seriously and take advantage of it while driving.
First of all, let's understand the concept and function of N-block. N-gear refers to "neutral", which is the state in which no driving force is transmitted to the wheels. In n gear, the engine is completely detached from the transmission, and instead of driving the wheels directly, it is idle. This means that the vehicle does not move forward or backward, and the driver can stop the car and remain stationary. So, why do we need to use n-gear?
First of all, the use of n-gear helps to extend the life of the car. When we encounter situations that require a long period of parking, such as waiting for traffic lights, traffic jams, or stopping and waiting, placing the vehicle in N gear can reduce the burden on the engine and transmission. Compared to staying in D (drive) or R (reverse), placing in N gear can reduce engine speed, reduce wear and fuel consumption, and extend the life of the engine and transmission.
Secondly, the correct use of N gear can improve driving safety. In the event of an emergency, such as emergency braking or obstacle avoidance, the vehicle can be stopped more quickly by placing it in N gear. When we are in D gear, the vehicle's engine is still connected to the drivetrain, and there may be some lag when braking. In N gear, the vehicle immediately enters the idle state, and the braking effect is more rapid, which greatly reduces the probability of accidents in emergency situations.
In addition, the use of N-gear increases driving pleasure and comfort. When we need to adjust the position of the vehicle in a parking lot or in a confined space, placing the vehicle in N gear allows for more flexibility. Compared to D or R, the N gear does not generate any driving force, making the vehicle easier to push or move, reducing the stress and difficulty of the driver when adjusting the position.
Finally, I'd like to remind you of a few things to keep in mind when using n-gear. First of all, when using N gear, you should make sure that the vehicle has come to a complete stop and pull up the handbrake. Second, press the brake pedal before switching to N gear on the gear lever. Finally, when it's time to drive again, lift your foot off the brake pedal and switch back to D or R via the gear lever.
In short, the correct use of N gear can not only extend the life of the car, improve driving safety, but also increase driving pleasure and comfort. Therefore, we should take this little gear seriously and make the most of it while driving. Whether it's to protect our precious car, or for the safety of ourselves and others, let's get started and understand and use N gear correctly!Don't wait until your car is scrapped to regret it.
