Zusammenfassung:A powertrain for a work vehicle includes an engine, a continuously variable power source (CVP), an output shaft, and a transmission. The transmission operably connects the engine and the CVP to the output shaft. The transmission is configured to provide selection between a plurality of transmission modes in which the transmission transmits power from at least one of the engine and the CVP to the output shaft. The transmission includes an input assembly defining an input axis, a variator assembly defining a variator axis, a countershaft assembly defining a countershaft axis, and an output assembly defining an output axis. The input assembly, the variator assembly, the countershaft assembly, and the output assembly are the same in different orientations. A vertical drop distance from the input axis to the output axis varies between the different ones of the plurality of orientations.
