A drive unit and a drive assembly and a motor vehicle. The drive unit includes a first electric machine and a second electric machine and an output shaft, wherein a rotor of the second electric machine is connected to the output shaft for conjoint rotation. The drive unit further includes a disconnect clutch by which a rotor of the first electric machine can be connected to the output shaft. The drive unit further includes power electronics for controlling at least one of the two electric machines and a flow system for implementing a flow of a coolant, and the drive unit, being a component in the flow system, further includes a heat exchanger by which the coolant can be cooled. The drive unit and the drive assembly constitute equipment that allows control of individual assemblies in an efficient manner and with a low space requirement.
