Abstract

A vehicle transmission has a first, second, and third shifting elements. First and second planetary gearsets each have a sun shaft, a ring gear shaft, and a web shaft. The first sun shaft is connected rotationally fixed to the second sun shaft and form the drive input. The first web shaft is connected rotationally fixed to the second ring gear shaft, which is configured as the drive output. The shift elements are combined to form a shifting unit with five shift positions and having a single axially displaceable sliding sleeve. In the closed condition of the first shifting element, the first web shaft and the second ring gear shaft are connected to a stationary component. In the closed condition of the second shifting element, the first ring gear shaft is connected to a stationary component. In the closed condition of the third shifting element, the planetary gearsets are blocked.
