How much does toyota prius transmission weight?

This is for a 2002 that fits 01-02... I don't have the transmission on me but need to find out how much it weights in pounds. Thanks again anyone who knowsHow much does toyota prius transmission weight?The Prius really does not have a trans, MG1 and MG2 work together to create the movement, there is no shifting involved.

The Electric motors have no top end so they do not need to shift to get to top speed of the car.

The Electric pack which works as the trans is close to 400 LBS and not cheep.How much does toyota prius transmission weight?
