Abstract:
1. A working vehicle comprising: a speed change unit arranged at a rear position of a traveling vehicle body; a housing of the speed change unit being inclined to one side in a lateral direction of the traveling vehicle body so as to provide a greater lateral space on one lateral side of the speed change unit and a lesser lateral space on an opposite lateral side of the speed change unit; a muffler arranged in the greater lateral space; the speed change unit being a continuously variable transmission connected to a rear end portion of a transmission case; a transmission system is configured in which a driving force controlled by the continuously variable transmission is transmitted to the transmission case, and is transmitted from the transmission case to left and right rear wheels via left and right rear wheel drive shafts; the continuously variable transmission is configured and arranged in an inclined manner such that an upper position of the continuously variable transmission protrudes above an upper surface of the transmission case, and is displaced, more than a lower position of the continuously variable transmission, toward the one side in the lateral direction of the vehicle body; the muffler is arranged on the other side in the lateral direction of the vehicle body with respect to the upper position of the continuously variable transmission, and at a position above the rear wheel drive shafts; the transmission case is connected to a rear portion of an engine; a drive shaft for driving front wheels is arranged in a longitudinal orientation facing forward from a lower portion of the transmission case; the engine is arranged at a position displaced from a center in the lateral direction of the vehicle body to the other side in the lateral direction of the vehicle body; and the drive shaft is displaced from the center in the lateral direction of the vehicle body to the one side in the lateral direction of the vehicle body.
