A car having: a frame; two rear drive wheels; two rear suspensions, which support the two rear wheels; a drivetrain having two axle shafts, which transmit the motion to the rear drive wheels; a rear subframe, which is fixed to the frame in four fixing points through the interposition of elastic isolating elements, directly supports at least part of the drivetrain, and provides a coupling for the rear suspensions. The four fixing points are substantially arranged at the same vertical height. The frame has two “C”-shaped elements, each having its two ends in the area of two fixing points. Two stiffening beams are provided, each arranged longitudinally and screwed to the frame in the area of the ends of a corresponding “C”-shaped element.

An apparatus for detecting a fault in an in-wheel driving system of a vehicle including: an in-wheel motor; at least one speed reduction part coupled to the in-wheel motor through a gear and transferring a rotation force of the in-wheel motor to a wheel; a sensor part sensing rpms of the in-wheel motor and the speed reduction part; and a control unit suitable for calculating an rpm ratio between the in-wheel motor and the speed reduction part by using the respective rpms sensed through the sensor parts and determining whether a damage or a fault has occurred in the speed reduction part, based on the calculated rpm ratio.

A moving system includes a first driving wheel and a second driving wheel associated to a supporting structure and rotatable to move the system forward or backward on a supporting surface. The first and the second driving wheel each include a spherical portion, the first driving wheel being rotatable around a first rotation axis and the second driving wheel being rotatable around a second rotation axis. The moving system further includes an inclination system that varies the inclination of the first rotation axis of the first driving wheel and/or of the second rotation axis of the second driving wheel so as to vary the diameter of the rotation circumference formed by the points of contact with the ground.

A tandem wheel assembly includes a tandem wheel housing having a center opening extending along a pivot axis, and wheel end openings extending along associated wheel axes. A pivot cage is configured to fixedly mount to a chassis of a vehicle and is disposed about the pivot axis at the center opening. A center sprocket is disposed within and rotatable with respect to the pivot cage. A wheel end assembly is disposed at each wheel end opening and has a wheel end sprocket, a wheel end gear train, and a wheel end hub. Each wheel end gear train is coupled for rotation by the wheel end sprocket and rotates the wheel end hub about the wheel end axis. A pair of reaction bars are pivotally coupled to the pivot cage at one end and to a component of the wheel end gear train at the other end.
