A vehicle drive apparatus (100) includes: a rotary electric machine (MG) disposed on a first axis (A1); a differential gear mechanism (DF) disposed on a second axis (A2); an output member (OUT) disposed on the second axis (A2); an inverter device (INV); and a case (1). The case (1) is a single-piece case internally including: a first housing chamber (5) housing the rotary electric machine (MG); and a second housing chamber (3) housing the inverter device (INV) and divided from the first housing chamber (5) with a partition (70). At least a specified portion (SP) of the output member (OUT) is housed in the first housing chamber (5). A location of the specified portion (SP) in an axial direction (L) overlaps with the rotary electric machine (MG). The partition (70) is provided between the specified portion (SP) and the inverter device (INV).
