Abstract
A final drive for a road vehicle comprises a pinion gear on a pinion axle journaled in a housing, the pinion gear being in gear engagement with a crown gear journaled for rotation transversely to the pinion axle. The final drive is combined with an all wheel drive (AWD) coupling, comprising a disc package axially controlled by a hydraulic piston for optionally transmitting torque from an ingoing axle to the pinion axle, the disc package being rotatably connected to the pinion axle. The ingoing axle of the AWD coupling is radially journaled only by the pinion axle in the final drive.
