A driveshaft has an elongated monolithic composite tube with a front joint at one end thereof and a rear joint at an opposite end thereof. The tube has an inner layer formed of glass fibers coaxially wound on top of one other. The tube has outer layer wound directly on the inner layer. The outer layer is formed substantially of carbon fibers. A ratio of a thickness of the outer layer to the thickness of the inner layer is between 0.8 and 1.2.
