Abstract

In a starter-generator for a motor vehicle, having an electrical machine that can be coupled selectively to an internal combustion engine and/or a transmission of the motor vehicle, the electrical machine (9, 12) is accommodated in a shallow cylindrical housing (5), which on axial opposed face ends is provided with means (28) for securing it to the engine or to a housing of the transmission. This makes it possible to combine the engine, the starter-generator, and the transmission into a compact, linear group.
