The Prius has the engine and electric motor power
simultaneously to elinminate a gearbox/CVT.

Does it transfer power from its engine/motor to the wheels?

Yes - therefore it has a transmission. Without one it would not move.

Is the transfer ratio fixed, variable in steps, or continuously variable?

Continuous - therefore by definition it has CVT.
