DRIVE ASSEMBLY FOR A VEHICLE, AND VEHICLE COMPRISING THE DRIVE ASSEMBLY

Powertrains of vehicles normally have a motor and a transmission. In particular, the motor and the transmission are spatially separated from each other and are connected together via a driveshaft. Thetransmission is lubricated by means of a lubricant, wherein losses can occur due to splashing at high rotational speeds, leading to high temperatures in the transmission for example. As a result of the different heat levels between the two compartments, a differential pressure is produced which negatively impacts the shaft seal ring. In order to reduce the splashing-related losses, separating means are provided for example which retain the lubricant. For this purpose, a drive assembly (1) is proposed for a vehicle, comprising a motor housing section (2) and a transmission housing section (3).The motor housing section (2) has a dry area (4), and the transmission housing section (3) has an oil area (5), said oil area (5) being at least partly filled with an oil (6). The drive assembly alsocomprises a motor shaft (1
