Method and apparatus for starting an engine of a modular hybrid transmission based upon demanded torque |
摘要 |
A control system including a method and apparatus for operating a hybrid vehicle. A disconnect clutch selectively separates an electric machine from a combustion engine. If a wide open throttle or high torque command is requested and the combustion engine is shut down, a 12 volt starter may be used to start the combustion engine while disconnected from the electric machine and all of the electric machine torque available may be used for traction. |

1. A vehicle comprising:
an engine having a starter; a stepped gear ratio automatic transmission operatively connected to the engine by a clutch; a motor operatively connected to the transmission; and a controller that provides an engine start signal when the engine is stopped to:
the starter when a torque demand request signal exceeds a threshold, and to the motor when the clutch is applied and the torque demand request signal does not exceed the threshold. |
