A vehicle or a wheel hub unit for a vehicle with a hydraulic drive unit comprising a hydraulic motor, wherein at least one pivot and/or steering axis is provided for pivoting and/or steering the hydraulic motor, wherein the hydraulic motor has at least one motor housing, wherein the motor housing has a connection flange with at least one inlet and one outlet connection for pressurization with hydraulic fluid, wherein a rotary feedthrough is provided for conducting the hydraulic fluid to/from the hydraulic motor, wherein the rotary feedthrough comprises at least one stator unit having at least one flange and a rotor unit rotatable with respect to the stator unit about a rotation axis and having at least two hydraulic connections for pressurization with hydraulic fluid, is proposed, which can be designed significantly more compact or more space-saving at high power or pressurization. According to the invention, this is achieved in that the stator unit has at least one first stator element having a first flange surface and a second stator element having a second flange surface, wherein in the direction of the rotation axis a distance is provided between the two stator elements and/or flange surfaces.
