An electric drivetrain having an axial flux electric motor disposed along a drivetrain axis, the axial flux electric motor disposed to rotate a hollow motor output shaft extending along the drivetrain axis, which hollow motor output shaft engages a first planetary gearset. The first planetary gearset may be engaged and disengaged with a second planetary gearset that is coupled to a differential which, in turn, drives first and second main driveshafts, each of which also extends along the drivetrain axis. The first main driveshaft drives a first wheel hub assembly and the second main driveshaft passes coaxially through the planetary gearsets, the hollow motor output shaft and the axial flux electric motor to drive a second wheel hub assembly.
