Frequently asked question:

Automatic and manual refer to the transmission. In other words, the gears. In a manual car, you have to change all the gears yourself. An automatic basically does it for you.

That’s not to say you don’t have gears in an automatic. They’re just a bit more basic. You sometimes get others, but the main four are:

● P: Park - This is the same as neutral, but the wheels are locked. You should be in park when you switch the engine on or off.

● D: Drive - Where the fun begins! This is for going forward, and the car will automatically go from first to second gear and so on. There are sometimes additional variations, but you’re likely to spend most of your journey in this gear.

● N: Neutral - You can put the car in neutral when stopped in traffic or at lights.

● R: Reverse - Does what it says on the tin.

In a manual car, gears are usually changed by pressing on the clutch. This means that automatic cars don’t have a clutch, making them difficult to stall. You also won’t grind the gears, or put it in the wrong gear by mistake.
In the uk, manual cars are much more common. Although the percentage of newly manufactured automatics is on the rise.

Automatic cars tend to be more costly. They use more fuel on average, and are more complicated to build. This also means they’re comparatively expensive to repair and insure.
If you live in an urban area, you might find driving an automatic more convenient. If there’s a lot of traffic, you’ll need to stop and start regularly. So driving a manual will mean changing gears frequently, and working the clutch a lot.

Also, if you live in a hilly area, automatics can be really handy. Hill starts are much easier in an automatic, as you don’t have to find the bite of the clutch, and are at less risk of rolling backwards.
