ABSTRACT:
A multi-speed transmission is provided that has three planetary gear sets that have a plurality of members positioned to establish only two gear planes. Six torque-transmitting mechanisms are selectively engagable in different combinations to connect different members of the planetary gear sets with an input member, an output member, a stationary member, and one another to establish seven forward speed ratios and a reverse speed ratio. One of the gear planes is established by the first and the second planetary gear sets. The second planetary gear set is positioned concentric with and radially-outward of the first planetary gear set, and the first and second planetary gear sets share a member.
