Automatic Transmission
An Automatic Transmission is a type of car transmission that changes gears automatically, without the driver needing to manually shift gears.
An Automatic Transmission is useful because it eliminates the need for the driver to manually shift gears, making driving easier and more convenient. It also allows the car to shift gears at the most efficient and appropriate time for maximum performance and fuel efficiency.
The Automatic Transmission is located between the engine and the driveshaft, underneath the car.
An Automatic Transmission uses a series of sensors, gears, clutches, and hydraulic systems to shift gears automatically. The transmission uses a torque converter to connect the engine to the transmission, which allows the engine to continue running while the car is stationary. When the driver presses the gas pedal, the transmission uses hydraulic pressure to engage the appropriate gear based on the car’s speed and load, and the torque converter multiplies the engine’s torque to move the car forward.
