Manual transmission in special environments maintains an absolute advantage

In ice and snow roads and special environmental conditions, it has to be admitted that manual transmission has more advantages than automatic transmission and has many advantages.

The first point is that the manual transmission has a more stable handling performance.

In ice and snow roads or special environmental road conditions, the road conditions are complex and changeable, and it is easy to slide, which puts forward higher requirements for the handling performance of the vehicle. The manual transmission can better adapt to these complex road conditions and provide more stable handling performance through the driver's manual control of the clutch and gear shifting, as well as the use of the coordination between the engine brake and the brake. This is especially true when it comes to the susceptibility to slippage and the shortening of the braking distance.

As a skilled driver, it is necessary to understand that the most effective braking of the car on the ice and snow road is the engine braking rather than directly stepping on the brakes, and the use of appropriate plus and minus gears with the clutch is more conducive to the start of the ice and snow road, and it is easier to control the stability of the vehicle by engine braking. In contrast, automatic transmission models are dwarfed by snow and ice or special environmental conditions. It is very likely that the control will be unstable due to the misjudgment of the electronic system, and such accidents are not uncommon in reality. Because we all know that the intelligence of all electronic devices is far less than the intelligence of the human brain in the face of complex road conditions.

The second point is that the manual transmission has a more precise power delivery capability. The driver of the manual transmission model can play on the spot according to the actual road conditions, and manually control all the operating processes to achieve better and more accurate power output. In ice and snow roads or special environmental conditions, the driver can accurately control the timing of gear shifts with his hands and feet to ensure that the vehicle has a more perfect and suitable power output at low speeds, so as to better cope with complex road conditions.

For example, the ice and snow road is easy to slip when starting in first gear, then we can hang the second gear, and then quickly hang back to the first gear after starting, and can also take the amplitude of the clutch semi-linkage to offset the tire slippage on the slippery road, this opportunistic operation method is always unattainable for automatic transmission, and automatic transmission models may be limited by the electronic system, can not achieve accurate power output control, even if the driver's technology is good, can not change the stubborn program of the driving control computer, which is also one of the gaps between automatic and manual。

The third point is that manual transmissions have higher safety.

The driver of a manual transmission model has more control over the driving state of the vehicle on icy roads or in special environmental conditions. By manually controlling the clutch and shifting, it is enough to avoid a lot of wheel slippage or side slippage that should not occur, and the driver can better ** the vehicle's driving trajectory and speed changes, so as to make more accurate judgments and operations.

In addition, the driver of the manual transmission can also through each direct operation of this ground feedback, more intuitive ** next step should be more correct what measures should be taken, and it is precisely because the manual transmission response to the feedback from the ground is more in line with the road conditions at that time, so that the driving speed and distance control of the vehicle can be better controlled, not only can greatly improve driving safety, but also can get a certain driving pleasure. Finally, the reason why I strongly recommend manual transmission to you for a long time is also because the manual transmission is more stable and controllable in ice and snow roads and special environmental conditions.

In addition, its very controllable power delivery and increased safety are also important aspects that our drivers should consider. Therefore, when choosing a vehicle, especially in the ice and snow road or special environmental road conditions of the driver, should fully consider the manual transmission model, and people manual transmission advantages so much, you can not because of our own inertia to think that the manual transmission is embarrassing, in fact, there are many advantages of manual transmission, but today we will say that the advantages of the ice and snow slippery road can be done, and we will talk about other advantages another day.
