Abstract: The invention relates to a torque-splitting differential (1) for a motor vehicle, comprising two coaxially aligned lateral differential gears (10, 10?) that are spaced apart in the axial direction, each lateral differential gear (10, 10?) being mounted to be rotatable about a common axis of rotation D. The differential has at least two compensating gears (20), each of which meshes with both lateral differential gears (10, 10?). A compensating gear support (30), on which the compensating gears (20) are rotatably mounted and which is arranged between the lateral differential gears (10, 10?), is mounted to be rotatable about the axis of rotation D. The lateral differential gears (10, 10?) are designed as crown gears, of which the teeth have different diameters. Furthermore, the compensating gears (20) are spur-cut gears while the compensating gear support (30) rotatably rests against the lateral differential gears (10, 10?).
