Abstract
A vehicle having at least two driven axles is powered by a gas turbine plant having two separate take-off shafts. One of these is connected to a first driven axle by a mechanical gearing, while the other take-off shaft is connected to a second driven axle by way of a transmission including a non-mechanical link. The non-mechanical link may include provision for electric power transfer and the transmission can be equipped with a current collector adapted to occasionally cooperate with a fixed electric main for transferring electric power into the transmission, to be used instead of, or together with the current generated by the gas turbine plant.
