The invention relates a differential assembly in the form of a crown differential for being used in the driveline of a motor vehicle. The differential assembly (2) comprises a one-piece differential carrier (3) which is rotatably drivable around an axis of rotation A and, in a casing portion (7), comprises no more than two identical openings (8, 9) for mounting sideshaft gears (11, 12) rotatably held in the differential carrier (3) on the axis of rotation A, as well as differential gears (13) which rotate jointly with the differential carrier (3) around the axis of rotation A and engage the teeth of the sideshaft gears (11, 12). With reference to a longitudinal central plane, the openings (8, 9) are arranged so as to be mirror-symmetrical and comprise an axial length L1 corresponding at least to the diameter of the differential gears, and a greatest circumferential extension L2 which, in a radial view, corresponds at least to the diameter of the sideshaft gears (11, 12).
