A transaxle for a vehicle includes an input driven shaft that extends along a drive axis, between a first end and a second end. The input driven shaft is rotatable about the drive axis. A first planetary gear train is coupled to the first end of the input driven shaft, and a first motor is coupled to the first planetary gear train. A second planetary gear train is coupled to the second end of the input driven shaft, and a second motor is coupled to the second planetary gear train. The first motor and the second motor provide torque to the first planetary gear train and the second planetary gear train independently of each other to provide a differential functionality and allow torque vectoring between drive wheels.
