A vehicular drive unit for a battery electric vehicle (BEV) includes an electric motor, for propelling the BEV, having an output shaft; a planetary gearbox, having an input and an output; a sprocket coupled to an output of the electric motor or an input of the planetary gearbox; and an endless loop rotatably coupled with the sprocket and the input of the planetary gearbox thereby configured to transmit rotational movement of the output shaft of the electric motor to a drive shaft of the BEV, wherein an axis of rotation of the drive shaft of the BEV is offset from an axis of rotation of the output shaft of the electric motor.

Modular electric vehicle drive module

An assembly for an electric vehicle includes an input shaft extending along a first axis and an electric motor rotatably coupled to the input shaft and co-axially aligned with the first axis. The assembly also includes an intermediate input shaft extending along a second axis and rotatably coupled to the input shaft. The assembly also includes an output shaft extending along the second axis and spaced from the intermediate input shaft along the second axis. The assembly further includes a planetary gearset rotatably coupled to the intermediate input shaft and to the output shaft, and co-axially aligned with the second axis. The assembly includes a final drive co-axially aligned with the first axis and rotatably coupled to the output shaft for providing rotational torque to at least one of a first and second set of wheels of the electric vehicle.

Assembly for use in an electric vehicle

A transfer case capable of multiple drive ratios (i.e. high and low) in all operating modes of a hybrid all-wheel or four-wheel drive vehicle. The transfer case comprises an input shaft, a primary output shaft, a secondary output shaft, an electric motor, and a planetary gear set. The secondary output shaft is selectively rotatably coupled to the primary output shaft. The planetary gear set has a ring gear rotatably fixed to the input shaft, a planet carrier rotatably fixed to the primary output shaft, and a sun gear rotatably fixed to an output of the electric motor.

Electrified (4WD) four wheel drive device

A pressurized fluid supply system for a vehicle transmission is provided. The fluid supply system has a pump with at least high and low pressure outputs that supplies high and low pressure components via a directional valve. The pressurized fluid supply system minimizes the parasitic loss upon a vehicle engine.
