Abstract
A power transmission device includes an electric motor, and a torque converter connected to the electric motor to transmit torque. A torque converter characteristic line is determined based on a capacity coefficient of the torque converter and indicates torque of the torque converter relative to each rotational speed of the torque converter. An electric motor characteristic line indicates a maximum output torque of the electric motor relative to each rotational speed of the electric motor. A first range corresponds to a range equal to and greater than a base rotational speed of the electric motor and equal to or less than a first average rotational speed, which is an average of the base rotational speed and a maximum rotational speed of the electric motor. The capacity coefficient is such that the characteristic line for the torque converter intersects the characteristic line for the electric motor in the first range.
