Abstract
The advantages of applying DCT technology in hybrid electric vehicles are introduced. Several hybrid configurations equipped with DCT are proposed in combination with theory and practice. The advantages and disadvantages of the four configurations are analyzed from the aspects of structural characteristics and functional applications. The feasibility of various configurations is qualitatively analyzed from the perspectives of engineering realization, R&D cost and R&D cycle. The paper focuses on two configurations with feasibility and research value: the scheme that the P2 motor is arranged in front of the gearbox has good feasibility in the short term. The integration scheme of P2.5 motor and gearbox electromechanical coupling will be the main development trend of DCT hybrid vehicles.
