Patent ID: 6843749

Claim:
A drive train for a vehicle, comprising: a first integrated power train unit comprising a motor, a first integrated power train differential assembly, a first output shaft and a second output shaft, the motor drivingly coupled to the first integrated power train differential assembly to transfer torque to each of the first and the second output shafts; a first axle differential assembly drivingly coupled to the first output shaft of the first integrated power train unit; a brake assembly adapted to apply a braking force to the second output shaft of the first integrated power train unit; a second axle differential assembly; and a clutch assembly selectively operable to couple the second output shaft of the first integrated power train unit to the second axle differential assembly in a four-wheel drive mode, and to uncouple the second output shaft of the first integrated power train unit from the second axle differential assembly in a two-wheel drive mode.
