In the powertrain, two driving motors are disposed in parallel. To prevent occupying space of a passenger compartment, a battery pack, a trunk, and the like, reserved space for disposing the powertrain on an existing mainstream vehicle is more on one side relative to a wheel shaft. Therefore, in the powertrain designed in this application, when two reducers respectively mesh with the two driving motors, neither output shafts of the two reducers are on a plane that is perpendicular to a connection line of centers of the two driving motors and at a contact position between the two driving motors. In other words, the two output shafts are disposed on one side of the entire powertrain, so that the powertrain can be disposed on a mainstream vehicle, and adaptability of the powertrain is improved. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A powertrain, comprising: a first driving motor, comprising a first motor shaft, and configured to drive the first motor shaft to rotate when powered on;
