The motor/pump unit (10) comprises an electric motor (12) and at least one pump (14) for delivering brake fluid. The electric motor (12) has a stator (16), in which a rotor (18) is rotatably disposed. The pump (14) is disposed substantially inside the rotor (18) and is drivable by the latter. In order to provide a particularly compact energy source for the vehicle brake system, there is disposed adjacent to the motor/pump unit (10) at least one aggregate (23), which is drivable with the aid of the rotor (18).
