1. An automatic transmission that shifts power applied to an input member and outputs the shifted power to an output member, the automatic transmission comprising:
a first planetary gear mechanism having a first rotary element, a second rotary element, and a third rotary element in order of an interval corresponding to a gear ratio in a speed diagram; a second planetary gear mechanism having a fourth rotary element, a fifth rotary element, and a sixth rotary element in order of an interval corresponding to a gear ratio in a speed diagram; a third planetary gear mechanism having a seventh rotary element, an eighth rotary element, and a ninth rotary element in order of an interval corresponding to a gear ratio in a speed diagram; a fourth planetary gear mechanism having a tenth rotary element, an eleventh rotary element, and a twelfth rotary element in order of an interval corresponding to a gear ratio in a speed diagram; a first coupling element that couples the first rotary element to the fourth rotary element; a second coupling element that couples the third rotary element to the eleventh rotary element; a third coupling element that couples the fifth rotary element to the ninth rotary element; a fourth coupling element that couples the seventh rotary element to the tenth rotary element; a first clutch capable of engaging two of the tenth rotary element, the eleventh rotary element, and the twelfth rotary element with each other and disengaging the two of the tenth rotary element, the eleventh rotary element, and the twelfth rotary element from each other; a second clutch capable of engaging the second rotary element with the eighth rotary element and disengaging the second rotary element from the eighth rotary element; a third clutch capable of engaging the sixth rotary element with the eighth rotary element and disengaging the sixth rotary element from the eighth rotary element; a fourth clutch capable of engaging the sixth rotary element with the fourth coupling element and disengaging the sixth rotary element from the fourth coupling element; a first brake that engages the first coupling element with an automatic transmission case so that the first coupling element can be held stationary with respect to the automatic transmission case, and that disengages the first coupling element from the automatic transmission case; and a second brake that engages the twelfth rotary element with the automatic transmission case so that the twelfth rotary element can be held stationary with respect to the automatic transmission case, and that disengages the twelfth rotary element from the automatic transmission case, wherein the input member is coupled to the fifth rotary element, and the output member is coupled to the second rotary element.
