Chronology
PredecessorZF 6HP

8HP is ZF Friedrichshafen AG's trademark name for its 8-speed automatic transmission models with hydraulic converter and planetary gearsets for longitudinal engine applications. Designed and first built by ZF's subsidiary in Saarbrücken, Germany, it debuted in 2008 on the BMW 7 Series (F01) 760Li sedan fitted with the V12 engine. BMW remains a major customer for the transmission.

Another major customer is Stellantis, who both received a license to produce the transmission and set up a joint-venture plant with ZF. Stellantis has built the transmission at its Kokomo Transmission plant since 2013 under their own brand name, the Torqueflite 8.[1][2] The joint venture plant in Gray Court, South Carolina opened in 2012.[3]

The GM 8L transmission is based on the same globally patented gearset concept. While fully retaining the gearset logic, it differs from this only in the patented[4] arrangement of the components with gearsets 1 and 3 swapped.[5]

Specifications

[edit]

2008: Pilot Series

[edit]

The 8HP 70 transmission with the gearset 4 in 23-85-teeth-configuration was the pilot series and therefore without generation designation. It was first used in the BMW 7 Series (F01) 760Li, has a torque handling limit of 700 N⋅m (516 lb⋅ft), and weighs 87 kg (192 lb).[6]

2010: 1st Generation

[edit]

In addition to the rear-wheel drive variant, two different four-wheel drive versions were available, with a version destined for Volkswagen Group applications using a Torsen centre differential.[7] It is able to encompass a torque range from 300 N⋅m (221 lb⋅ft) to 1,000 N⋅m (738 lb⋅ft), and is available for use in middle-class cars through to large luxury sport utility vehicles.[7]

Since gearset 4 meshes in almost all gears up to and including 5th gear, large gear wheels are advantageous for durability. As the very high ratio 1st gear is formed exclusively by gearset 4, its sun gear is unusually small. For this reason, this gearset was enlarged by over 20 % when the 1st generation was introduced, even if this advantage had to be given up again immediately when the 2nd generation was introduced in order to increase the total span.

2014: 2nd Generation

[edit]

Efficiency improvements over the pilot design and the first generation include a wider ratio span of 7.81, reduced drag torque from the shift elements, reduction in required oil pump pressure, and broadened use of the coasting and start-stop systems.[8] ZF estimated fuel economy improvement over first generation to be 3 %. Refinements were also made with respect to vibration.

2018: 3rd Generation

[edit]

Major improvements are total span of 8.59 and a fuel economy improvement of 2.5 % compared to the second generation. There are several options in maximum torque available, also the gearbox is available with mild hybrid and plug in hybrid options: With 15 kW (20 hp) and 200 N⋅m (148 lb⋅ft) supporting boosting and recuperation in combination with 48 Volt technology up to 90 kW (121 hp) and 250 N⋅m (184 lb⋅ft) for usage with higher voltage.[9]

2022: 4th Generation

[edit]

Major improvement is the transition to a versatile modular system that allows vehicle manufacturers to comprehensively and flexibly electrify their models as required. Plug-in Hybrid options with up to 160 kW (215 hp) and 280 N⋅m (207 lb⋅ft) are capable of saving up to 70 % of carbon emissions compared with a purely conventional variant of the 8HP according to the Worldwide Harmonised Light Vehicles Test Procedure (WLTP).[10] In addition, a modification to gearset 3 increased the reverse gear ratio, making it less disadvantageous. With this gearset concept, the already disadvantageously large step from 7th to 8th gear is further increased, albeit only slightly.

Layout (Gearset Concept) Progress

[edit]

The main objective in replacing the predecessor model was to improve vehicle fuel economy with extra speeds and a wider gear span to allow the engine speed level to be lowered (downspeeding). Compared to the 6-speed ZF 6HP transmission it uses 12 % less fuel, and 14 % less than a 5-speed transmission.[11][12] Due to changes in internal design, the shift times have reduced to 0.2 seconds; additionally, the unit brings the ability to shift in a non-sequential manner – going from gear 8 to gear 2 in extreme situations.[13]

Quality Of The Progress

[edit]

In order to increase the number of ratios, ZF has abandoned the conventional design method of limiting themselves to pure in-line epicyclic gearing and extended it to a combination with parallel epicyclic gearing. This was only possible thanks to computer-aided design and has resulted in a globally patented gearset concept. The resulting progress is reflected in a better ratio of the number of gears to the number of components used compared to existing layouts.

    • Automobile manufacturers drive forward technical developments primarily in order to remain competitive or to achieve or defend technological leadership. This technical progress has therefore always been subject to economic constraints
    • Only innovations whose relative additional benefit is greater than the relative additional resource input, i.e. whose economic elasticity is greater than 1, are considered for realization
    • The required innovation elasticity of an automobile manufacturer depends on its expected return on investment. The basic assumption that the relative additional benefit must be at least twice as high as the relative additional resource input helps with orientation

    • It became the archetype and dominated the world market for around 3 decades, setting the standard for automatic transmissions. It was only when fuel consumption became the focus of interest that this design reached its limits, which is why it has now completely disappeared from the market
    • What has remained is the orientation that it offers as a reference standard (point of reference, benchmark) for this market for determining progressiveness and thus the market position of all other, later designs

Quality Of The Layout

[edit]

The ratios of the 8 gears are relatively unevenly distributed in all versions. Particularly noticeable are the too small step between 3rd and 4th gear and the too large one between 7th and 8th gear. This cannot be eliminated without affecting all other gear ratios. On the other hand the selected gearset concept offers 2 to 3 gears more than conventional transmissions of comparable manufacturing costs, which more than compensates for the weaknesses.

    • Input and output are on opposite sides
    • Planetary gearset 1 is on the input (turbine) side
    • Input shafts are C2 and, if actuated, R3 and S4
    • Output shaft is C4 (planetary gear carrier of gearset 4)
  2. ^ Total Ratio Span (Total Ratio Spread · Total Gear Ratio)
    • A wider span enables the
      • downspeeding when driving outside the city limits
      • increase the climbing ability
        • when driving over mountain passes or off-road
        • or when towing a trailer
  3. ^ Ratio Span's Center
    • The center indicates the speed level of the transmission
    • Together with the final drive ratio
    • it gives the shaft speed level of the vehicle
  4. ^ Average Gear Step
    • With decreasing step width

      • the lower half of the gear steps (between the small gears; rounded down, here the first 3) is always larger
      • and the upper half of the gear steps (between the large gears; rounded up, here the last 4) is always smaller
    • than the average gear step (cell highlighted yellow two rows above on the far right)

    • The ideal reverse gear has the same transmission ratio as 1st gear
      • no impairment when maneuvering

      • a torque converter can only partially compensate for this deficiency
    • Plus 11.11 % minus 10 % compared to 1st gear is good

    • With continuously decreasing gear steps (yellow marked line Step)
    • the largest gear step is the one from 1st to 2nd gear, which
      • for a good speed connection and
      • a smooth gear shift
    • must be as small as possible
      • A gear ratio of up to 1.6667:1 (5:3) is good
