Downshifting is literally placing a vehicle's transmission in a lower gear, i.e. one with a greater number of revolutions of the driveshaft compared to the revolutions of the drive wheels. This is normally used to brake a vehicle using engine torque, to improve torque on steep grades, or to facilitate acceleration.
Metaphorically, it is used to indicate a reduction in an economic activity, such as manufacturing output, by a single company or an entire industry.

What happens when you downshifting?
When downshifting, the transmission shifts to lower gears which increases engine speed and provides more power for acceleration or braking. It can help control speed during descents or prepare for a faster exit from a corner in driving. However, improper downshifting can cause engine wear or damage if done at high speeds.

Downshifting refers to the process of?
Downshifting refers to the process of shifting to a lower gear in a vehicle to decrease speed or increase torque. This is commonly done when slowing down, going uphill, or to better match engine speed with road speed.

What causes an engine to backfire during downshifting?
An engine backfires during downshifting primarily due to an improper air-fuel mixture or a timing issue. When the throttle is closed suddenly during downshifting, excess fuel can enter the combustion chamber and ignite in the exhaust system instead of the engine, causing a backfire. Additionally, a malfunctioning ignition system or an exhaust leak can exacerbate the problem by allowing unburned fuel to escape and ignite outside the engine. Regular maintenance and proper driving techniques can help prevent this issue.
