A modular hybrid transmission that provides for an improved support of the rotor as well as an improved cooling layout for the stator. The modular hybrid transmission has a rotating assembly and a housing assembly. The rotating assembly includes a rotor assembly, a rotor carrier hub that supports the rotor, and an input shaft. The rotor carrier is rotationally fixed on the input shaft. The housing assembly houses the rotating assembly, and includes a housing having an outer wall, a stator assembly connected to the outer wall, and a radially extending stationary wall that extends from the outer wall toward the output shaft. The stationary wall includes an axially extending wall portion that extends parallel to an outer surface of the input shaft, and a radial ball bearing supports the input shaft on this axially extending wall portion. Two stator cooling paths are channeled in the housing.

A hybrid module configured for arrangement in a torque path upstream from a transmission and downstream from an internal combustion engine includes an electric motor including a rotor and a stator for driving the rotor, a torque converter downstream of the electric motor, and a rotor input clutch including a piston and at least one clutch plate. The piston is configured for being pressed in a first axial direction into the at least one clutch plate via a pressure increase of fluid in an apply chamber. The hybrid module also includes a compensation chamber assembly. The compensation chamber assembly and the piston define a compensation chamber radially offset from the apply chamber. The compensation chamber assembly is configured for applying a force on the piston in a second axial direction opposite the first axial direction via a pressure increase of fluid in the compensation chamber.

A torque converter comprises a front cover, an impeller including an impeller shell fixed to the front cover, and a turbine including a turbine shell axially movable to frictionally engage the impeller shell such that the turbine shell forms a turbine piston of a lock-up clutch. A damper assembly disposed between the front cover and the turbine shell comprises: springs; a flange connected to the turbine shell and drivingly engaged with the springs; and a spring retainer supporting the springs and connected to a turbine hub. A piston plate may be disposed between the spring retainer and front cover and configured to be axially displaceable to force the turbine piston against the impeller shell for engagement of the lock-up clutch. A seal plate may be fixed to the front cover and disposed between the front cover and the piston plate with the piston plate sealed to the seal plate.
