A transfer for a four-wheel drive vehicle of simplified structure in which speed-reducing and center differential functions are implemented by a single planetary gear set includes an input shaft; a first output shaft disposed coaxially with respect to the input shaft; a ring gear which co-rotates with the input shaft; a first pinion meshed with the ring gear; a second pinion in mesh with the first pinion at all times; a carrier for axially supporting the first and second pinions; a sun gear which, by being slid, selectively meshes with the first pinion or the second pinion; a brake for locking the sun gear when the sun gear and the first pinion mesh (the low position of the transfer); a driving gear which meshes with the sun gear when the sun gear and the second pinion mesh (the high position of the transfer); a sleeve mounted on the first output shaft and shifted for engaging the driving gear with the first output shaft in the direction of rotation; a second output shaft disposed in parallel with the first output shaft; and a driven gear which co-rotates with the second output shaft and to which torque is transmitted from the driving gear via a chain.
