Abstract

A power transmission system of a hybrid electric vehicle uses an engine and a motor/generator as power sources, and includes: a torque converter including a planetary gear set having first, second, and third rotating elements, the first rotating element being selectively connected to a transmission housing, the second rotating element being connected to an engine output shaft of the engine, and the third rotating element being connected to a motor output shaft of the motor/generator; an input device including a first input shaft selectively connected to the motor output shaft through one clutch and a second input shaft that is disposed on a same shaft line as the first input shaft to be selectively connected to the motor output shaft through another clutch; and a shift output device shifting and outputting rotation power of the input device.
