VEHICLE DRIVE APPARATUS

A rotating electrical machine and an input member are placed on a first axis, a counter gear mechanism is placed on a second axis, and a differential gear mechanism is placed on a third axis. The input member, the counter gear mechanism, and the differential gear mechanism have portions placed on an axial first side with respect to the rotating electrical machine. A pump portion is placed on the opposite side of an imaginary plane passing through the first axis and the third axis from the second axis, and is placed at a location that overlaps at least one of the rotating electrical machine and the differential gear mechanism in an axial view. The pump portion is placed on the axial first side with respect to the rotating electrical machine.
