Abstract

An agricultural work machine comprising a front axle and a rear axle, an internal combustion engine, at least one hybrid module, and a transmission device is disclosed. The internal combustion engine and the hybrid module are each operatively connected to the transmission device with both output power from the internal combustion engine and output power from the hybrid module absorbed via the transmission device. The output powers are transferred together to the rear axle so that rear wheels of the agricultural work machine arranged on the rear axle can be driven. The internal combustion engine is arranged in a front region of the agricultural work machine and the hybrid module is arranged in a rear region of the agricultural work machine. The output powers from the internal combustion engine and the hybrid module are supplied separately to the transmission device.
