Abstract

An indirect manual transmission for a motor vehicle having cross-country mobility includes a cross-country reduction stage connected behind the transmission unit. At least one control gear wheel constructed as a loose wheel is provided on its input shaft. This control gear wheel is constructed as a twin gear wheel and is used as a countershaft for the reduction stage. With this coaxial arrangement of the countershaft, the indirect manual transmission has a particularly compact construction.
