Abstract
A motor vehicle has at least two drive units which can be operated in a drive train, with devices assigned to the drive units which permit identical or different power output from the drive units, and the power output from the drive units is coordinated such that the drive units are operated in the range of low fuel consumption. In this manner it is ensured that the drive units integrated in one drive train are operated at nearly optimal operating points.
