Original Abstract Submitted

An electric beam axle includes an electric motor positioned at a first axial end region and a compound planetary gearset positioned at a second axial end region of the electric beam axle. An input shaft extends between and couples the compound planetary gearset to the electric motor. A spur gear differential is positioned at the second axial end region, and a load stage carrier of the compound planetary gearset extends between and couples the spur gear differential to the compound planetary gearset. The spur gear differential includes a first output shaft and a second output shaft. The first output shaft is connected to a first wheel hub positioned at a first distal end of the electric beam axle. The second output shaft is connected to a second wheel hub positioned at a second distal end of the electric beam axle.
