One embodiment of an electric drive system (100) includes first and second gear assemblies (130) coupled to a hollow axle tube (50), and first and second electric motors (122) respectively coupled to the first and second gear assemblies. Further, the electric drive system includes first and second drive axles (140) positioned within the hollow axle tube. The first drive axle includes a first end portion (144) coupled to a first wheel (42) and a second end portion (142) coupled to the first gear assembly. Similarly, the second drive axle includes a first end portion (144) coupled to a second wheel (42) spaced-apart from the first wheel and a second end portion (142) coupled to the second gear assembly. Actuation of the first electric motor rotates the first drive axle and first wheel via the first gear assembly and actuation of the second electric motor rotates the second drive axle and second wheel via the second gear assembly. |
