ABSTRACT:
A transmission and a continuously variable transmission are coaxially arranged to an engine. A front differential is perpendicularly suspended under the forward/reverse changeover apparatus. An axis of the differential crosses at a right angle of an axis of the speed reduction apparatus in an integral structure. The engine is longitudinally housed in a front portion of a toe board in an engine compartment of the motor vehicle. Thus, a compact structure is provided and the engine and the transmission can be arranged in an engine compartment without modifying a vehicle body structure. Further, a transfer apparatus is provided behind the speed reduction apparatus in an integral structure. A most portion of the continuously variable transmission is mounted at a front portion of a toe board in an engine compartment, and power is transmitted from the front differential to front wheels and from the transfer apparatus to rear wheels, thereby providing a power unit of two wheel drive and/or four wheel drive type engine in a compact structure.
