ABSTRACT:
An automotive vehicle transmission system has two epicyclic gearsets and a first and second electrically connected motor/generator. Components of the epicyclic gearsets and the motor/generators are connected such that, when the transmission system is in use, electrical power is transferred between the first and second motor/generators.
