Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A propulsion system for an electric vehicle including an internal combustion engine and an electric machine disposed in a transmission housing that is attached to the engine. An engine vibration damper is disposed between the engine and the electric machine. A torque converter connects the engine to the turbine shaft and is disposed in the housing radially inboard of the windings of the electric machine. A turbine shaft connected to the electric machine is configured to transfer torque from the engine and the electric machine through the turbine shaft to a planetary gear set connected to the turbine shaft. A disconnect clutch is operatively connected between the engine and the electric machine and is disposed in the housing radially inboard the windings of the electric machine and is connected to the turbine shaft.
