Why do you shift down when going up a hill?
The downshift causes the engine to turn at a slower rate. This causes the wheels of the car and the engine to be more similar and gives more of an emphasis on producing power versus a top speed which is achieved in a higher gear. Alternate answer: An internal combustion engine only develops power when it is turning between a narrow band of revs. usually between 3000 and 6000 rpm on the average car. The hill puts a heavy load on the engine and causes it to slow down. Shifting to a lower gear (actually a higher gear ratio), allows the engine to speed up and develop more power to cope with the hill.
