Abstract
A hybrid automated manual transmission includes an input shaft configured to be connected to a prime mover by an input clutch. At least one splitter gear connectable to the input shaft. A main shaft is concentric with the input shaft and includes at least two main shaft gears connectable to the main shaft. At least one countershaft includes at least one first driven gears drivingly engaged with the at least one splitter gear and at least two second driven gears drivingly engaged with the at least two main shaft gears. A motor generator is drivingly connected to the input shaft.
