The engine 10 drives the first planetary carrier 41, and the first motor 20 can drive the first sun gear 42. The power of the first ring gear 43 can be continuously variable by adjusting the speed of the first motor 20. After the power is transmitted to the second sun gear 52 and the second ring gear 53, it can be transmitted to the output shaft 99 through the second planetary carrier 51.

[0088] As some embodiments of this application, in the second power split mode, the second motor 30 can participate in the drive. Specifically, the power of the engine 10 and the first motor 20 is transmitted to the second sun gear 52 and the second ring gear 53 after the power of the first ring gear 43 and the second motor 30 are coupled. The power is then transmitted to the second planetary carrier 51 through the second sun gear 52 and the second ring gear 53, so as to transmit the power to the output shaft 99.

If the first planetary carrier 41 is not engaged with the first ring gear 43, then the mode is the power split mode. Furthermore, it is understandable that the drive assembly 100 can switch between the third parallel mode and the power split mode by switching the first planetary carrier 41 and the first ring gear 43 between engagement and non-engagement.
