Transmission system for a vehicle

A transmission system for a front wheel driven vehicle having an input arranged for connection to a drive source, and an output arranged for connection to a load, and comprising:

• a transmission comprising:
• an output shaft connected to the output,
• a first input shaft and a first speed transforming gear coupling the first input shaft to the output shaft, and wherein the first speed transforming gear comprises at least a first transmission gear having a pair of gear wheels for transforming a rotational speed of the first input shaft into a lower, equal, or higher rotational speed at the output shaft, and
• a second input shaft and a second speed transforming gear coupling the second input shaft to the output shaft,
• wherein the second speed transforming gear comprises at least a second transmission gear having a pair of gear wheels for transforming a rotational speed of the second input shaft into a lower, equal, or higher rotational speed at the output shaft,
• a first coupling member including a first friction element, the first coupling member having a first section which is connected to the input, and a second section which is connected to the first input shaft of the transmission,
• a second coupling member including a second friction element, the second coupling member having a third section which is connected to the input, and a fourth section which is connected to the second input shaft of the transmission,
• a third transmission gear having a pair of gear wheels for transforming a rotational speed of either the first or the second input shaft into a lower, equal, or higher rotational speed at the output shaft,
• a third coupling member having a fifth section which is connected to the first input shaft and a sixth section which is directly connected to a first gear wheel of the pair of gear wheels of the third transmission gear,
• a fourth coupling member having a seventh section which is connected to the second input shaft and an eighth section which is directly connected to said first gear wheel of the third transmission gear;
• a linking gear including a first linking gear wheel and a second linking gear wheel, wherein the first linking gear wheel meshes with the second linking gear wheel, and wherein the second linking gear wheel is rotationally coupled to one of the gear wheels of the pair of gear wheels of the third transmission gear, and
• a further coupling member having one section connected to the first input shaft and another section connected to the first linking gear wheel of the linking gear.
