A drivetrain providing tractive torque to a ground vehicle includes a non-combustion torque machine coaxial to and rotatably coupled to an integrated gear set including a conjoined carrier assembly coupling a reducing gear set to a differential gear set. The differential gear set is coaxial to and rotatably coupled to first and second differential axle members. The first differential axle member couples to a first wheel assembly of the ground vehicle and the second differential axle member couples to a second wheel assembly located on a second, opposite side of the ground vehicle.
