Abstract
An electrical circuit arrangement includes a traction battery, electrical connection for electrically coupling to a vehicle-external electric unit, and first and second high-voltage potentials. The circuit arrangement has two electric drive units each having an inverter and an electric three-phase motor electrically coupled thereto for driving the vehicle. The circuit arrangement is configured such that the two electric drive units can be electrically connected in series between the electrical connection and the traction battery such that the first electric drive unit increases the first high-voltage potential and the second electric drive unit increases the second high-voltage potential from the electrical connection to the traction battery. The inverters each have a capacitor between a potential line of the first high-voltage potential and a potential line of the second high-voltage potential. The second electric drive unit can be electrically connected in series with the capacitor connection of the first electric drive unit.
