<p>The present invention illustrates a vehicle powertrain architecture that combines the traditional internal combustion engine (ICE) 14 with an electric drive. The integrated starter-generator (ISG) 13 is a form of electric drive, which replaces both the conventional starter and alternator (generator) of the vehicle by a single electric device. The existing automatic manual transmission is, therefore integrated with ISG and ET system with a wheel integrated electrical machine. It enhances the starting ability, drivability and stability. It provides the options of running a vehicle in the series hybrid and parallel hybrid with better control on the throttle for different varied driving and road conditions. This proposed configuration also aids in achieving greater electrical generation capacity, fuel economy and emission benefits. Figure 2</p> |
