Abstract: Automatic transmission comprising: planetary gears arranged coaxially in a row, each planetary gear comprising a sun wheel, a planetary carrier carrying pivoted planetary wheels and an annulus gear, an input column connected to a sun wheel of a first planetary gear, a general gear positioned adjacent to the row of planetary gears next to a last planetary gear, n mediator gears mounted on an output column and connected to the output column via a freewheel assembly so the mediator gears are freely rotatable in one direction relative to the output column, each mediator gear in engagement with one of the planetary wheels, wherein a planetary carrier of the last planetary gear is fixed to the general gear, and a planetary carrier of each but the last planetary gear connected to a sun wheel of a following planetary gear, wherein rotation of any of the mediator gears can be stopped selectively.
