Abstract
An electrified powertrain that generates and transfers drive torque to a driveline of an electrified vehicle is provided. The electrified powertrain includes an electric drive module (EDM), and a controller. The EDM includes a first electric motor having a first output drivingly coupled to a first output shaft that drives a first drive wheel; a second electric motor having a second output selectively coupled to a second output shaft that drives a second drive wheel; and a clutch. The clutch moves between a first position that decouples the second electric motor from the second output shaft and couples the first and second output shafts to each other; and a second position that couples the second electric motor to the second output shaft and decouples the first and second output shafts from each other. The controller controls operation of the clutch based on operating conditions.
