ABSTRACT:
An automatic transmission providing modal speed ratios, single transition gear shifting, low internal speeds, and an output lock feature is provided. First, second and third modal torque-transmitting mechanisms are selectively engagable along with first and second input torque-transmitting mechanisms to effect power flow to first and second planetary gear set to cause the speed of a member of one of the gear sets to increase in the first mode (when the first and second input torque-transmitting mechanisms are engaged in successive order while the first modal torque-transmitting mechanism is engaged), decrease in the second mode (when the first and second input torque-transmitting mechanisms are engaged in reverse order while the second modal torque-transmitting mechanism is engaged) and increase in the third mode (when the first and second input torque-transmitting mechanisms are engaged in successive order while the third modal torque-transmitting mechanism is engaged).
