Abstract

A drive system for an electric vehicle includes: drive components, including: a traction battery; an inverter; and an electric machine. The traction battery is electrically connected to the electric machine by the inverter. The traction battery is electrically connected to the inverter and the inverter is electrically connected to the electric machine in each case by high-voltage connecting elements. The drive system has a cooling circuit cools the drive components by a cooling medium. The drive components and the high-voltage connecting elements are each formed so as to convey cooling medium and form a part of the cooling circuit.
