Abstract
A motor vehicle drive train assembly includes an axial flux induction motor including a stator, a first rotor and a second rotor. The stator, the first rotor and the second rotor are concentric with a motor center axis. The first rotor is axially spaced from a first axial side of the stator by a first air gap and the second rotor is axially spaced from a second axial side of the stator by a second air gap. The axial flux induction motor is configured such that the first rotor is rotatable about the motor center axis by the stator at a first rotational speed to drive a first drive shaft non-rotatably connected to the first rotor while the second rotor is rotatable about the motor center axis by the stator at a second rotational speed that is greater than the first rotational speed to drive a second drive shaft non-rotatably connected to the second rotor.
