Are Manual Cars Faster Than Automatic Transmission Cars? by ibinaboonline: 9:23pm On Oct 02, 2023 |
The debate has been ongoing for a long time now and this is my two cents on the matter. A car's speed is not solely determined by whether it has a manual or automatic transmission. Both manual and automatic transmissions can offer similar performance in terms of speed. However, the actual speed and acceleration depend on various factors such as the engine's power, torque, aerodynamics, and weight. True, manual transmissions can provide a more direct connection between the driver and the engine, allowing for precise control and potentially faster acceleration if the driver is skilled at shifting gears efficiently. On the other hand, modern automatic transmissions, especially those with advanced dual-clutch or continuously variable designs, can shift gears quickly and efficiently, potentially rivaling or surpassing the performance of manual transmissions. Experienced drivers, what do you think? 12 Likes

No, The major difference is take off, why do you think police and most transport drivers use manual, because you can get to your highest gear within a shorter distance than auto. If a police man is driving an automatic and is chasing a thief using manual and they have to make so many turns from street to street, the police might never catch the thief, but if they enter a free expressway over a long distance without any stops then the possibility becomes higher for the police, because they will both exhaust their maximum gears. Now this is where engine power will begin to really talk but most thieves prefer manual same with police.... 48 Likes 2 Shares |

As an engineer , and someone who has driven both , l did say manual transmission cars are faster in accelerating than their utomatic counter part. Why do you think that race cars has manual transmission. Just think on that. 24 Likes 2 Shares |
