SsangYong Korando III (2010 year). Manual - part 533

03-22

(3) 1st Drive Gear (4.212)

Front sun gear and middle & rear planetary gears locked, and rear sun gear always rotated

When the rear sun gear rotates, the rear planetary gear set reduces the speed at first, and then the 

reduced power is transferred to rear & front annulus gear. The power is secondarily reduced at front 

planetary gear locked with sun gear and flows to front planetary gear. 

At this moment, the middle sun gear rotates in reverse direction without load (idling) by the rotation of 

middle annulus gear integrated with front planetary gear.

(4) 2nd Drive Gear (2.637)

Front sun gear and middle sun gear locked, rear sun gear always rotated

When the sun gear rotates, the power is transferred to the rear & front annulus gears, and then the 

reaction power from the front planetary gear and middle annulus gear locked with sun gear is 

transferred to middle & rear planetary gear to circulate the power. Accordingly, the power flows 

through the front planetary gear while keeping the balance.

(5) 3rd Drive Gear (1.800)

Front sun gear locked, middle & rear sun gear rotated 

When the middle sun gear and rear sun gear rotate, the power is transferred to the rear & front 

annulus gears, and then the reaction power from the front planetary gear and middle annulus gear 

locked with sun gear is transferred to middle & rear planetary gear to circulate the power. 

Accordingly, the power flows through the front planetary gear while keeping the balance.

(6) 4th Drive Gear (1.386)

Front sun gear locked, rear planetary gear and rear sun gear rotated

When the overdrive clutch (OD/C) operates, the carrier is engaged with sun gear in rear planetary 

gear set and the power with 1:1 ratio flows to the front planetary gear locked with sun gear after 

passing through the rear & front annulus gears. 

At this moment, by operation of speed-reduced annulus gears and carrier in 1:1 ratio, the middle sun 

gear in middle planetary gear set increases its speed without load (idling).
