1. A wheel suspension and transmission gear assembly, comprising:
a first linkage unit comprising:
a first gear couplable to an input shaft and being a first gear in the transmission gear assembly, and
a second gear coupled to the first gear to transmit rotational motion between each other;
a main arm pivotally connected to the first linkage, the main arm comprising:
a first gear being rotatable by the second gear of the first linkage unit, and
a second gear couplable to an output shaft and coupled to the first gear of the main arm to transmit rotational motion between each other, the second gear of the main arm being a last gear in the transmission gear assembly; and
a second linkage unit pivotally connected to the main arm such that at least a portion of the main arm is between the first linkage unit and the second linkage unit.
