An electrified vehicle (EV) includes a front electric drive module (EDM) configured to drive front wheels, a rear EDM configured to drive rear wheels, a high voltage battery system configured to power the front EDM and the rear EDM, and an internal combustion engine. A motor/generator is coupled to an output of the internal combustion engine and is configured to selectively generate power to charge the high voltage battery system and/or provide power directly to the front and/or rear EDMs. The front and rear EDMs provide the EV with four-wheel-drive or all-wheel-drive capability, and the motor/generator is configured to extend a driving range of the EV by charging the high voltage battery system.
