Turbo-Hydramatic is the registered tradename of a family of automatic transmissions developed and produced by General Motors. These transmissions mate a three element torque converter to a Simpson planetary geartrain, providing three forward speeds plus reverse. The Turbo-Hydramatic (THM) series was developed to replace both the original Hydra-Matic models and the Buick Dynaflow. In its original incarnation as the Turbo-Hydramatic 400 it was first used in the 1964 model year in Cadillacs.

dbpprop:abstract
  • Turbo-Hydramatic is the registered tradename of a family of automatic transmissions developed and produced by General Motors. These transmissions mate a three element torque converter to a Simpson planetary geartrain, providing three forward speeds plus reverse. The Turbo-Hydramatic (THM) series was developed to replace both the original Hydra-Matic models and the Buick Dynaflow. In its original incarnation as the Turbo-Hydramatic 400 it was first used in the 1964 model year in Cadillacs. The Buick version, which followed shortly thereafter, was known as the Super-Turbine 400. By 1973 THM units had replaced all of GM's automatic transmissions (e.g. Chevrolet Powerglide, Buick Super Turbine 300, Oldsmobile Jetaway, etc.). From the early 1980s onward, it was progressively replaced by later four-speed and five-speed automatics (which incorporate an overdrive gear, sometimes 2), some of which continue to use the "Hydramatic" trade name. Although the Turbo-Hydramatic name is related to that of the first fully automatic transmission, Hydramatic, developed by General Motors Cadillac division in the late 1930s, the two transmissions were not mechanically related.
