Abstract
A two-speed transmission for an electric vehicle including an electric motor, a first transmission mechanism and a second transmission mechanism is provided. The electric motor includes a rotor and a spindle. The rotor drives a first sun gear and a first planet gear of the first transmission mechanism to rotate with respect to the first ring gear to generate a first gear ratio. The rotor drives a second sun gear and a second planet gear of the second transmission mechanism to rotate with respect to the second ring gear to generate a second gear ratio different from the first gear ratio. When the first clutch connects with the spindle, the second clutch separates from the spindle, and a first torque is outputted to the spindle. When the second clutch connects with the spindle, the first clutch separates from the spindle, and a second torque is outputted to the spindle.
