Abstract
A motor vehicle transmission () which is outfitted with a start-up subassembly (A), a core transmission (B) as well as an output subassembly (C) which are drive-engineering connected with one another and are arranged in a transmission housing to reduce development, manufacturing and storage costs. Moreover, the start-up subassembly (A) contains a clutch, a double clutch () or a torque converter, while the core transmission (B) is constructed as a gear reduction transmission. The core transmission (B) disposes over at least one transmission input shaft (), a gear reduction shaft () as well as at least one transmission output which is not oriented coaxially toward the at least one transmission input shaft (). The output subassembly (C) contains transmission components for a front-transverse drive (), for a front-longitudinal or rear-longitudinal drive () or for an all wheel drive ().
