Abstract
A planetary gear train of an automatic transmission for a vehicle is disclosed. The planetary gear train provides ten forward speed stages and one reverse speed stage by combining four planetary gear sets with seven control elements. The planetary gear train includes an input shaft, an output shaft, four planetary gear sets, eight shafts interconnecting rotation elements of the four planetary gear sets, four clutches, and three brakes for controlling operation of the planetary gear train. The planetary gear train is configured to have a gear ratio span greater than 10.0 while securing linearity of step ratios of shift stages.
