ABSTRACT:
The electrically variable transmission family provides low-content, low-cost electrically variable transmission mechanisms including first, second and third differential gear sets, a battery, three electric machines serving interchangeably as motors or generators and at least one brake operable to enable series hybrid reverse operation. The three motor/generators are operable in a coordinated fashion to yield an EVT with a continuously variable range of speeds (including reverse).
