depends on the engine,fuel type,car make , model , the way you accelerate, and various factors, give more detail so people can understand what you ask ?

Car: Paj IO

Engine: GDI

Fuel: Petrol

No.Of.Gears: 4

Acceleration concerned: A sudden kick donw (The down shift/kick down happens very well, it's the shift to the next gear i'm concerned with)

Normally 1-2 in 2000-2400

and other gears below 2000 (like in 1800)

[Schiffer]

depends on car to car and how heavy or light footed you are

it usually changes around 2000-2500 RPM

if you floor it around 3000 - 3000+

if your light footed even at 1500

Try to control your right foot mate and you'd be fine.If you are new to this car, take it to an empty parking lot or a road out in nowhere and experiment with it to get a feel/understanding about how it operates under different conditions. Once you get the right feel for it, you'd be able to alter the gear shift points to whatever the rpm you want by varying the throttle position.

Cheers.

Well he has a gdi turbo. That should explain the high revs when up-shifting.
