Answer:

Due to same gravity.

Step-by-step explanation:

The speed of the car remains the same when it reaches on the flat surface because the gravity is same at every step of flat surface while on the other hand, the speed of car speed increases steadily on the inclined plane due to gravity of the earth. So we can say that speed of the car remains the same on the flat surface due to same gravitational force.
