Gear selector positions for
automatic transmissions
With an automatic transmission, a suitable
gear is selected automatically according to
current speed and power requirements.
Selecting gears
The gear selector is a shift-by-wire selector,
where shifting is done electronically instead of
mechanically. This makes shifting easier and
the gear positions more distinct.
Gear selector and gear selector positions overview.
Change gear position by pushing the spring-
loaded gear selector forward or rearward, or to
the side for manual shifting.
