ransmission (8HP) is first produced in volume in the Audi Q5 hybrid quattro starting in 2011. This version facilitates purely electric driving without changing the basic transmission concept. Thanks to hybridization, a medium cycle consumption of 6.9L/100km or 159g CO2 emissions/km according to the NEDC is possible. In this hybrid solution by ZF, combustion engine and electric engine are directly connected and can thus be operated at the same tim...
