Truth on Myth: Stick Shift Cars Going out the Door | Automotive Parts Suppliers

Manual Transmission CarIn you take a look at today’s first world countries, you’ll see that stick shift cars are no longer commonly used. The comfort of not having to shift gears has definitely provided a lot of ease to anyone who owns an automatic vehicle. Those who just want to take things easy should have no complaints with their automatic cars, but when it comes to the “need for speed”, stick shift cars really do break necks!

Stick shift cars, which can also be referred as Manual Transmissions or Manual Gearboxes, have been used for several decades in motor vehicles. It uses 1) a clutch to transfer torque from the engine to the transmission of a car and 2) a gear stick that regulates what gear the car would be in to. Perfect Shifting is known to be the best way to maximize the speed of a car. The maximum speed of manual gearboxes can never be matched by automatic transmissions, because the “Perfect Shift” concept would not take place without the help of a driver’s manual shifting.
