Claim Text:
1. A drivetrain for a hybrid vehicle comprising: at least one ground engaging element; a torque transmission shaft operatively connected to the at least one ground engaging element to drive the ground engaging element; an electric motor operatively connected to the torque transmission shaft, the electric motor selectively driving the torque transmission shaft and being selectively driven by the torque transmission shaft; a transmission having an input shaft and an output shaft, the output shaft being operatively connected to the torque transmission shaft, the output shaft selectively driving the torque transmission shaft and being selectively driven by the torque transmission shaft, the transmission having: the transmission being capable of shifting directly from the neutral shift position to the first shift position and directly from the neutral shift position to the highest shift position, rotating the shift drum to a first position shifts the transmission in the neutral shift position, rotating the shift drum to a second position shifts the transmission in the first shift position, and rotating the shift drum to a third position shifts the transmission in the highest shift position; and the shift drum being rotatable directly from the first position to the second position and directly from the first position to the third position; and an internal combustion engine operatively connected to the input shaft of the transmission, the engine selectively driving the input shaft and being selectively driven by the input shaft.
