A drive device for an electric vehicle in which, by improving a supporting structure of an input shaft of a speed reduction unit, the bearing stiffness of a hub bearing is improved, while the rotational accuracy and the durability of an input shaft of a speed reduction unit are improved and noise is suppressed. The drive device includes: a speed reduction unit including an input shaft driven by an electric motor; a hub unit rotationally driven by the speed reduction unit; and a housing. The input shaft of the speed reduction unit is supported by bearings provided at two locations in the axial direction. The bearings are both supported by the output member, and the PCD of the inboard-side hub bearing of the hub bearings disposed at the two locations in the axial direction of the hub unit is larger than the PCD of the outboard-side hub bearing. |
