A vehicular automatic transmission is provided with a reduction planetary
gear for reducing and outputting an inputted rotation of an input shaft,
first and third clutches for enabling the transmission of a reduced
rotation reduced through the reduction planetary gear, a planetary gear
unit having second and third sun gears to which the reduced rotation is
transmitted by the first and third clutches and a fourth clutch for
enabling the transmission of the inputted rotation to the second sun
gear. The fourth clutch is linked to the second sun gear of the planetary
gear unit via output side members, i.e., a clutch drum and a link member,
of the third clutch to commonly use as the output side members. Thereby,
the automatic transmission may be compactly built.
