An adjustable displaced differential (ADD) drive unit is disclosed. The ADD drive unit includes a first drive wheel connected to a first pivot and having a vertical axis that is offset laterally from the first wheel traction point. The ADD drive unit includes a second drive wheel connected to a second pivot having a vertical axis that is offset laterally from the second wheel traction point. The ADD drive unit includes differential steering, where if the speed of rotation of the first drive wheel is different to the speed of rotation of the second drive wheel, steering results. The ADD drive unit includes an adjustable steering assembly that can adjust the orientation of the first drive wheel as compared to the second drive wheel to provide additional driving modalities including Ackermann steering, steerable lateral travel and steerable rotation about a chosen vertical axis, such as the center of the machine.
