Why is the manual transmission called the "native" of cars?

Nowadays, the types of cars are really becoming more and more abundant, and the configurations of current cars are also more user-friendly and intelligent. When we buy a car, we often face a variety of choices. Of course, some configurations are not that important. Like some cars of the same model, there will be differences between standard and high-end configurations. But this difference is not very obvious. The most obvious one is the difference between the automatic transmission and the manual transmission of the car.

We know that before buying a car, we must first get a driver's license. If you don't even have a driver's license, you can only wait to be fined for driving. When I was learning to drive, the cars I learned at the driving school were all manual transmissions. Of course, many friends don’t understand what the benefits are of learning to drive a manual transmission car. Manual transmission cars are not easy to drive at all and are very difficult to operate. Nowadays, almost all cars are automatic transmission, so why do driving schools still choose manual transmission cars?

In driving schools, first of all, the vehicles we learn are the most common cars. These cars are generally manual transmissions, and most of the vehicles in driving schools are pickup trucks. This kind of car is relatively large first, and our family cars are still relatively small, so the advantage is that we can adapt to our family cars as quickly as possible. Secondly, the quality of the cars in driving schools is generally average, and all aspects of its operations are relatively cumbersome. Of course, this is more conducive to our students to standardize their own operations and become more proficient in various skills in future driving. Finally, manual transmission cars are more difficult to drive than automatic transmission cars. Automatic transmission cars only have R gears. These two gears are the two most commonly used gears in automatic transmissions, so they are very simple to operate. And after we learn how to drive a manual car, we will be very comfortable driving an automatic car.

The editor of Xiaomian will take you to understand some of the benefits of manual transmission cars.

The first is that manual cars can effectively cooperate with your hands and feet when operating, and this cooperation can well arouse the driver's interest. When driving, It will no longer appear monotonous and boring because the operation is too simple. However, automatic transmission cars often repeat the same action for a long time, making it easy to lose concentration. And especially when driving long distances on the highway, this situation is very dangerous.

The second benefit is that manual transmission cars have a longer service life. Generally speaking, in the development process of our cars, manual transmission cars appeared early, and the technology is very mature, while automatic transmission cars appeared much later, so their technology is not perfect enough, and automatic transmission machines are more technologically advanced. is high, so once the machine breaks down, it is not that simple to repair.

The third advantage is that for drivers, some novices tend to become very nervous when they start driving. Especially for some current female drivers, they often feel nervous because of their inner I made a joke out of nervousness or lack of technical proficiency. But if your car has a manual transmission, there will be no such problems and situations at all. Because our friends who have passed the driver's license test all know that if we step on the accelerator by mistake, as long as the speed does not reach the corresponding gear, the car will not start. In comparison, manual transmission cars are less prone to dangerous accidents.
