Abstract
A shift lever assembly for an automatic transmission vehicle is provided. A moderate feeling experienced by a driver is provided by using magnetic forces of a bullet magnet and a groove magnet when moving a shift lever in a shift direction and in a select direction. Since the bullet magnet and the groove magnet are spaced apart from each other by a predetermined distance to avoid coming into contact with each other within a range affected by magnetic forces thereof, damage due to wear is prevented and operating noise is reduced significantly.
