e-CVT Power Split Transmission for Off-Road Hybrid-Electric Vehicles

Traction system based on electric driven Continuously Variable Transmission (e-CVT) is widely used in full hybrid powertrains for passenger cars. This paper deals with a new solution for the layout of the e-CVT, which is based on coaxial and concentric arrangement of the electric machines. The hybrid electric transmission based on the e-CVT is proposed for the application on agricultural tractors.
