Abstract
A drive unit for a motor vehicle exhibits an internal combustion engine and a transmission. The drivable wheels of the motor vehicle can be driven by means of the rotary motion of the output shaft of the transmission. The drivable wheels of the motor vehicle can be driven alternatively or additionally by an electric motor, which can be mounted in such a manner that its rotor forms a part of the output shaft of the transmission. The electric motor is dimensioned in such a manner in its outer dimensions that it can replace a part of the output shaft of the transmission.
