Abstract
A transfer case capable of multiple drive ratios (i.e. high and low) in all operating modes of a hybrid all-wheel or four-wheel drive vehicle. The transfer case comprises an input shaft, a primary output shaft, a secondary output shaft, an electric motor, and a planetary gear set. The secondary output shaft is selectively rotatably coupled to the primary output shaft. The planetary gear set has a ring gear rotatably fixed to the input shaft, a planet carrier rotatably fixed to the primary output shaft, and a sun gear rotatably fixed to an output of the electric motor.
