A motor vehicle comprising:
- a drive motor;
- a drive gearbox connected to and receiving power from the drive motor;
- a power take-off connected to the drive gearbox and comprising a power take-off shaft;
- and
- an auxiliary unit connected to the power take-off,
- wherein the auxiliary unit is coupled to the power take-off shaft by an auxiliary gearbox such that the auxiliary unit is disposed directly under the drive gearbox.
A motor vehicle comprising a drive motor, a drive gearbox connected to and receiving power from the drive motor, a power take-off connected to the drive gearbox, and an auxiliary unit connected to the power take-off, the drive gearbox being mounted directly under the drive motor, the auxiliary unit being mounted below the drive gearbox, and the power take-off being mounted to the drive gearbox at an end of the drive gearbox positioned in an opposite direction to a forward driving direction of the motor vehicle,
- wherein the power take-off is flange mounted to the drive gearbox to eliminate a requirement for an intervening drive shaft between the power take-off and the auxiliary unit, and
- wherein the auxiliary unit projects forwardly of the power take-off in a direction corresponding to a forward motion of motor vehicle travel.
