Abstract
In a double clutch transmission, particularly for front wheel drive cars with transversely mounted engines, the power path for the reverse speed extends through the same path as that for the second forward speed, both using the same input clutch, while the power path for the first forward speed extends through the other input clutch of the double clutch so that shifting between the reverse and first speeds can be accomplished under engine power.
