  "textContent": "An electric drive unit includes a motor that rotates a rotor shaft, a transmission assembly coupled with the rotor shaft, a differential assembly with a ring gear that interfaces with a gear of the transmission assembly, such that rotation of the rotor shaft drives rotation of the ring gear, and a housing. The housing includes a body, a cover that with the body forms an enclosure about an interior region of the housing in which the transmission and differential assemblies are disposed, wherein the interior region includes a primary oil reservoir, and a gasket coupled with the cover. The cover and the gasket define a secondary oil reservoir. The gasket defines an opening and at least one passage. Rotation of the ring gear delivers oil into the secondary oil reservoir from the primary oil reservoir via the opening, and the passage conveys oil to a portion of the differential assembly.",
