Abstract

A hybrid drive device includes: a first one-way clutch; a second one-way clutch; a first power transfer path through which power can be transferred from a rotor to wheels; and a second power transfer path which is composed of an engine rotation transfer member, the first one-way clutch, and a coupling member, through which power can be transferred from an internal combustion engine to an oil pump, and which intersects the first power transfer path at an intersection portion. An engagement element, the first one-way clutch, and the second one-way clutch are disposed on one side of the first power transfer path.
