Abstract: A resonator having a cavity and an opening is formed. The cavity is formed between a transaxle case and a facing wall, of a first housing case, that faces the transaxle case. The opening is configured such that the cavity is partially opened to a lateral side through the opening. A volume of the cavity and a volume of the opening are set such that a resonance frequency of the resonator is lower than a natural frequency of the facing wall of the first housing case. Since the resonance frequency of the resonator is lower than the natural frequency of the facing wall, even when the facing wall vibrates at the natural frequency, the cavity does not resonate. Hereby, abnormal noise caused from the transaxle can be reduced.
