Abstract: The invention relates to a drive axle for a motor vehicle, which axle can be driven by an internal combustion engine or an electric motor, according to choice. For the above-mentioned purpose, a changeover gear unit is installed on the axle beam of the drive axle, this gear unit being equipped with one gear unit input shaft for each drive unit, it being possible to connect these drive unit input shafts, individually, to the gear unit output shaft driving the differential gear, coupling being effected by means of a shifting clutch, the axes of the shafts extending at right angles to the axis of the axle beam. The drive ends of the two gear unit input shafts are located on opposite sides of the changeover gear unit, so that the two drive units can be positioned on different sides of the axle and as a result, the axle loading is configured in a correspondingly advantageous manner. In addition, it is possible to drive the axle by means of the electric motor, while at the same time by-passing the conventional gearbox which is located in the drive line from the internal combustion engine.
