Abstract

A forward and transversely mounted engine is provided with a transaxle including a manual transmission having a striking rod for accomplishing shifting and selecting operations for the gear mechanism of the transmission. The striking rod is located at an upper part of the transmission and projected rearward of an end of the transaxle. The projected end section of the striking rod is operatively connected through a speed changing control rod to a shift lever. The control rod is connected to and offset lower relative to the striking rod projected end section, so that the control rod is positioned lower as a whole.
