The electric motor and the power transmission device constitute at least a part of a driving apparatus. The driving apparatus and the electric-power control device constitute a mechanical-electrical integrated unit which is housed in a single casing and which is located in a position adjacent to the engine. The charger and the intake device are located on an upper side of the mechanical-electrical integrated unit in a vertical direction of the electric vehicle.
