A drive system for a vehicle, especially a non-guided vehicle, comprising at least one internal combustion engine, at least one generator, at least one electric drive motor and at least one torque converter, the torque converter being positioned between the drive motor and an output shaft leading to the vehicle axes. The drive system is characterized in that the drive motor is coupled with the converter in order to increase the torque conveyed to the vehicle axes by the drive motor via the output shaft at particular speeds or accelerations.

1. A drive arrangement for a vehicle with a driven shaft connected to the vehicle axles, said drive arrangement comprising: at least one internal combustion engine; at least one generator connected to said engine; at least one transversal flux machine electric drive motor of the in electrical connection to said generator, said motor connected to at least one torque converter arranged between said drive motor and a driven shaft to the vehicle axles, said drive motor coupled to said converter for magnifying the torque delivered from said drive motor onto the vehicle axles via the driven shaft; and a coupling means for coupling said drive motor and said torque converter, said means can be coupled to said drive motor and decoupled from it or can bridge said torque converter. 2. The drive arrangement according to claim 1, in that said means for coupling and decoupling or bridging the torque converter to the drive motor is a lock-up coupling. 3. The drive arrangement according to claim 1, including a control mechanism which controls the torque converter in such a manner that the coupling is coupled to said drive motor during start procedures and is decoupled from said drive motor or bridged when at least one of a given travel speed or starting acceleration is exceeded. 4. The drive arrangement according to claim 1, in which said torque converter is a hydrodynamic torque converter. 5. The drive arrangement according to claim 1, in which said drive motor is arranged in the vehicle chassis. 6. The drive arrangement according to claim 1, in which said drive motor is provided in a central motor arrangement. 7. The drive arrangement according to claim 1, in which said generator and drive motor are combined into an electrical transmission unit.
