Abstract
An axle end arrangement includes a stator unit and a rotor unit, wherein the stator unit is configured to be fixed in a secured manner against rotation about a stub axle relative to an axle stub, wherein the rotor unit is configured to be fixed indirectly or directly on a hub, wherein the stator unit includes a coil arrangement in which, upon rotation of the rotor unit, a voltage is generated, wherein the rotor unit includes a maximum outer radius measured perpendicular to the stub axle, which outer radius is smaller than the smallest distance of a fastening region for a vehicle wheel on the hub from the stub axle.
