Abstract
A drive assembly for a motor vehicle having a stepless transmission including a driven input shaft coupled to an engine and at least one output shaft. The input and output shafts are drivingly connected through an eccentric drive provided on the input shaft. A freewheel system is provided on the output shaft. The eccentric drive and the freewheel system are interconnected by at least one connecting element. An electrical machine is selectively connected through coupling elements to the input shaft of the transmission, to the engine, or simultaneously to the input shaft and to the engine.
