Abstract
A manual transmission including an input shaft Ai to which power is input from an internal combustion engine E/G through a clutch UT and an output shaft Ao from which power is output to drive wheels. This transmission has a plurality of EV travel gear stages (different from the neutral) in which no power transmission system is established between the input shaft Ai and the output shaft Ao, and a plurality of E/G travel gear stages in which a power transmission system is established between the input shaft Ai and the output shaft Ao. This transmission has a connection changeover mechanism which establishes and breaks connection between the output shaft of the electric motor and the output shaft. When an EV travel gear stage is selected, a 'connected state' is always realized. When an E/G travel gear stage is selected, a 'disconnected state' is realized in some cases.
