Abstract
A transmission, such as a transmission for a vehicle, a driveline including the transmission, and a method of performing a gear shift using the transmission. The transmission comprises a first transmission shaft, a first gear disposed on the first transmission shaft, a first wet clutch, and a first synchronizer. The first wet clutch and the first synchronizer are configured to selectively drivingly engage the first gear with the first transmission shaft and are connectable in series between the first gear and the first transmission shaft, such that the first gear is drivingly engaged with the first transmission shaft only when both the first wet clutch and the first synchronizer are engaged, and such that the first gear is drivingly disengaged from the first transmission shaft when either one or both of the first wet clutch and the first synchronizer is/are disengaged.
