ABSTRACT:
An all-wheel drivetrain for a motor vehicle, which has at least two driven axles, comprising a characteristic torque converter transmission of longitudinal construction. To the input side of the transmission drive power is fed and the transmission serves for converting a characteristic of a drive engine. The output side of the transmission is connected to a transfer device, by means of which the drive power can be distributed to the two axles. The transmission has an output shaft which is connected to a first drive shaft for the first axle, and a countershaft parallel thereto. The output shaft and the countershaft are connected to one another by means of a first constant transmission ratio. The countershaft is connected by means of a second constant transmission ratio to a second drive shaft for the second axle. The transfer device is arranged coaxially with the second drive shaft.
