A drive device for a motor vehicle includes a drive machine and a transmission device having a triple planetary great set and having a first and second clutch, wherein the triple planetary gear set has a plurality of triple planet gears, wherein each triple planet gear includes a first gear, a second gear, and a third gear. The three gears of each triple planet gear are connected to each other for conjoint rotation and are jointly rotatably accommodated on a planet carrier, and the drive machine is connected to the triple planetary gear set by the first clutch and a first sun gear or by the second clutch and a second sun gear.

Drive device for a motor vehicle

A drive device includes a drive machine, such as an electric motor, gear reduction planetary gear sets, and a differential. One of the gear reduction planetary gear sets utilizes multi-step planetary gears. The differential is a spur gear differential. To reduce axial length, one of the gearwheels of each multi-step planetary gears axially overlaps with planetary gears of the spur gear differential.
