Maybe your talking about an RPM range of 0-1000 rpm? Cars equipped with automatic transmissions have a torque converter, which transfers power via viscous fluids and other fun mechanics. Other than that, I don't see how you could accelerate without increasing RPM's, unless you happen to be going downhill, or you brake launched your car.
