The invention discloses a single motor coupler only for an electric vehicle. The single motor coupler is composed of a motor, a sun wheel, a ring gear, two planet gears, a planet carrier, a hollow gear shaft, two constant meshing gears, and a gear shifting mechanism, and a differential mechanism. The single motor coupler includes two drive gear positions including a drive gear position A and a drive gear position B; and the drive gear position A is a low gear to achieve a larger transmission ratio, and the drive gear position B is a high gear. The single motor coupler effectively shortens gear-shifting interval; the power layout of a traditional automobile is changed, the transmission system is simplified, and the transmission efficiency is improved; the structure is simple, the weight ofa vehicle body is reduced, and meanwhile, the remaining space of a chassis is increased; the two drive gear positions are realized, and the speed and power demands under different road conditions aresatisfied, so that the motor runs in a high efficiency range and the efficiency of the motor is improved; and the gear-shifting interval is short, energy loss is reduced, the energy utilization is improved, and the adverse effect of power interruption on driving is reduced.
