Abstract
An automatic transmission has a one-side clutch and an other-side clutch in an axial direction, the one-side clutch and the other-side clutch being aligned in the axial direction on an axis of a power transmission shaft. These clutches respectively include: drum sections; hub sections; friction plates that are engaged in an axially slidable manner between the drum sections and the hub sections; and pistons that press the friction plates. The friction plates in the one-side and other-side clutches are arranged in parallel in the axial direction. The pistons in the one-side clutch and the other-side clutch are arranged on one sides in the axial direction of the friction plates and are arranged such that axial positions thereof overlap. The piston in the other-side clutch penetrates the friction plate in the one-side clutch in the axial direction.
