Abstract
A power transmission apparatus for a hybrid electric vehicle may include first and second input shafts coaxially mounted and selectively receiving an engine torque, a compound planetary gear set mounted on the second input shaft, receiving a motor torque, and formed by combining two planetary gear sets sharing a sun gear and a planet carrier, an idle shaft mounted in parallel with the first input shaft, a first output shaft mounted in parallel to the first input shaft, receiving a torque from at least the first input shaft, and outputting a torque through the first output gear, a connection element selectively transmitting the engine torque to the compound planetary gear set or the first input shaft, an engagement element selectively connecting the compound planetary gear set to a transmission housing, and a plurality of gear sets mounted on the first and second input shafts and idle shaft and the first output shaft.
