Abstract
In a left-right wheel drive device () that accommodates, in a casing (), two electric motors () spaced apart from each other and a planetary gear mechanism () arranged so as to be offset on a first side in an axial direction, a pair of motor shafts (), a pair of counter shafts (), and two output shafts () are arranged in parallel. The first output shaft () is arranged on the first side from the planetary gear mechanism () and is fixed with a carrier (C) at an end portion of a second side thereof. The second output shaft () is longer than the first output shaft () and is fixed with the second sun gear (S) at an end portion on the first side thereof. The second output shaft () is rotatably supported by roller bearings () at the end portion on the second side and a position on the second side from a driven gear meshing with the second counter gear.
