Abstract

A compact transaxle is provided with a multi-speed transmission mechanism having transmission shafts extended in a longitudinal direction so that the transaxle can be combined with an engine having a crankshaft in the longitudinal direction. A bevel gear serving as an output member of the multi-speed transmission mechanism having the transmission shafts meshes with a bevel gear provided on a speed-reduction intermediate shaft extended parallel to a pair of differential yoke shafts of a differential mechanism extended in a lateral direction. A single transaxle casing incorporates the multi-speed transmission mechanism, the differential mechanism, and a speed-reduction mechanism including the speed-reduction intermediate shaft, thereby constituting the transaxle.
