Abstract
A vibration adjustment of a drive assembly is achieved by way of a pivoted mount about a longitudinal vehicle axis of an articulated column. An exhaust system with exhaust mufflers and catalytic converters is used to shift a total powertrain vibration to a lower engine speed, and a significantly improved vibrational behavior can be achieved at idle speed.
