The RPM rev up when driving because of the way your car's transmission works. Essentially, the transmission is responsible for sending power from the engine to the wheels. The transmission's job is to change the RPMs that the engine is sending, so that the wheels can turn at the correct speed. When you accelerate, the transmission increases the RPMs that the engine is sending to the wheels to provide more power. The faster you accelerate, the more the RPMs will increase. This is why you hear the RPM rev up when you are accelerating.

Why does your engine rev up while driving?

Thanks for your interest. Yes, when you rev car engine while driving keep your foot on the brake the time of revving it up, but remove it before dropping the shifter into gear if you want to slide around as you leave the area. Put it in neutral rev and back in gear, go as fast as you want. Here always need a practical performance. So be careful.


Why does the intrigue not allow you to rev past thirty five hundred rpms in neutral or park?

It is the rev limiter which protects your engine from over reving. While driving you can rev as much as you want. I never red line though and dont recommend it. You can remove it with a power programmer which can cost $$$$.
