In a three-wheeled vehicle provided with a power transmission mechanism
for transmitting the output of an engine to left and right rear wheels
via a continuously variable transmission, a gear box and inner shafts of
drive shafts as left and right output shafts, the inner shafts which are
output shafts of the gear box are provided apart in a longitudinal
direction of the body. The overall length of the drive shafts can be
increased. When the rear wheel is vertically moved, an angle of the bend
of the drive shaft can be minimized. Further, the tread of the wheels can
be reduced. Therefore, the width of the body can be reduced and the
mobility of the vehicle can be enhanced. In addition, the gear case can
be separate from the crankcase and attached to the crankcase with the
differential mechanism being housed in the separate gear case.
