Abstract

A vehicle is provided with a shift lever and a transmission apparatus. The transmission apparatus separates a manual shift lever from an automatic shift lever to distinguish manual shifting from automatic shifting, thereby preventing an erroneous user operation. The shift lever receives a shift command and the transmission apparatus performs shifting according to the shift command received by the shift lever. The shift lever includes an automatic shift lever that moves linearly to receive an automatic shift command and a manual shift lever that rotates on the automatic shift lever as an axis of rotation to receive a manual shift command.
