Abstract
The invention concerns a transmission, especially for a motor vehicle, which is designed as group transmission (1). In order to utilize as fully as possible the traction-speed diagram, the transmission has five manually shiftable gears to which join two automatically engageable and disengageable overdrive gears. The group transmission (1) is formed by one synchronized transmission (2) and one powershift transmission (3) . The proposed transmission stands out in particular by a light weight and small installation space at a low cost of production.
