This article presents a comparative analysis of possible combinations of three transmission systems, namely, Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT), Planetary Gear Transmission (PGT), and Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT), to carry out the comparative study of fuel consumption to deduce new gearbox architecture. Modern automotive industry is moving towards greener technology that leads to the introduction of the Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) as electric motor has higher efficiency compared to an IC engine. Different combinations of available transmission systems, viz., CVT-DCT, CVT-PGS, DCT-PGS, and CVT-DCT-PGS are tested in a MATLAB/Simulink environment. From this experimentation, it has been observed that the topology of transmission architecture also influences the fuel consumption apart from the losses in power train. This experimentation utilized the advantages of combining multiple gearbox architecture to develop a new gearbox to achieve maximum fuel efficiency and thereby reducing the carbon footprint. A systematic analysis of multiple gearbox architecture enabled the development of topological layout to achieve desired transmission architecture.
