Method for operating a hybrid drive of a motor vehicle

Abstract

A method is provided for operating a hybrid drive of a motor vehicle which has a combustion engine, at least one electrical machine, and at least one electrical accumulator, the electrical machine and the electrical accumulator belonging to an electrical system of the motor vehicle. The following steps are provided for implementing the method: subdividing the operation of the electrical machine into adjacent subranges of a) transient compensation operation, b) boost and/or recuperation operation, and c) operation for maintaining the vehicle electrical system; assigning torque limits and/or power output limits of the electrical machine in at least two subranges; and, releasing and/or influencing the particular torque limits and/or power output limits of the subranges as a function of the current state of the electrical accumulator and/or of the electrical machine and/or of the vehicle electrical system.
