Abstract

In this article we present an overview and summarize trends in automotive gearboxes of standard powertrains. The majority of data used in the statistics are obtained from Catalogue de la Revue Automobile published in years 1995, 2000, 2005, 2012 and 2015. Observed statistical data gives overview about trends in technical parameter of automotive transmissions. Only “standard powertrains”, where the only energy source is the internal combustion engines are taken into account. The hybridization or electrification of powertrains was not an issue on the beginning of the study.

Článek shrnuje výsledek statistických dat čerpaných zejména z katalogu Revue Automobile z let 1995, 2000, 2005, 2012, 2015. Shromážděná data dávají přehled o vývoji a trendech technických parametrů převodovek osobních vozidel. Pouze „klasická“ hnací ústrojí, kde zdrojem energie je spalovací motor jsou zahrnuta do této studie. Hybridizace nebo elektrifikace vozidel na počátku této statistiky neexistovala nebo jen ve zcela výjimečných případech.
