摘要

The vehicle has a diesel engine and at least two axles, at least one driven by the diesel engine. The other axle(s) is not driven by the engine and has two outer sides with hubs for at least one wheel each. The axle (1) for each wheel hub has an integral electric drive activated manually or automatically as a start-off aid up to a threshold speed of 10 kph. The drive connection is separated when the speed is exceeded, preferably by an idler. The vehicle has a diesel engine and at least two axles, whereby at least one axle is driven by the diesel engine and the other axle(s) is not driven by the diesel engine and has two outer sides, each with a hub for accommodating at least one wheel. The axle (1) for each wheel hub has an integral electric drive (2) that can be activated manually or automatically by signals from a vehicle computer as a start-off aid up to a threshold speed of 10 kph and the drive connection between the wheels and axle is separated when the speed is exceeded, preferably by an idler (8).
