A motor vehicle, particularly a bus, has right and left front steerable wheels whose axes are spaced a substantial horizontal distance apart in a direction lengthwise of the vehicle. The driver's cabin is in front of the left front wheel and the vehicle engine is disposed beneath the driver's cabin. A passenger door is provided on the right front side, and that door and the right front wheel are disposed one in front of the other. An assembly comprising a clutch and a torque converter and a differential is positioned, with a fuel tank, between the rear wheels of the vehicle; and a long transmission shaft extends from the engine rearwardly to this assembly. When the door is in front of the right front wheel, a spare tire can be located horizontally beneath the door and protruding forwardly of the chassis.
