To shift gears in A Long Road on Roblox, use the game’s manual transmission controls: sit in the car, start the engine, release the handbrake, then hold the shift key combo and select the gear you want. A common setup described in guides is Ctrl + number keys for shifting, with 0 for neutral, R for reverse, and 1–4 for forward gears.

  1. Sit in the vehicle.
  2. Start the engine.
  3. Release the handbrake.
  4. Hold Ctrl and press the gear you want.
  5. Release Ctrl after the gear changes.

If the car feels weak or stalls, shift only after you have enough speed in the current gear. One guide also notes that you may need to press W before releasing the shift key to give the engine more gas.
