摘要:
A vehicle automatic transmission including a torque converter, a multiple stage transmission gear mechanism connected with the torque converter and a hydraulic control circuit for automatically selecting one of gear stages of the transmission gear mechanism. The hydraulic control circuit includes a kickdown control device which functions to shift down the gear mechanism when the engine control foot pedal is substantially fully depressed. Depending on the vehicle running condition, the kickdown control device shifts down the gear mechanism by two gear stages. The hydraulic circuit includes control circuit which functions to shift down the gear mechanism at first by one gear stage and then by a further one stage in sequence when a two stage shift down is required.

Depending on the vehicle running condition, the kickdown control device shifts down the gear mechanism by two gear stages. The hydraulic circuit includes control circuit which functions to shift down the gear mechanism at first by one gear stage and then by a further one stage after a certain time delay when a two stage shift down is required.
