DRIVE CONTROL DEVICE FOR SERIES HYBRID VEHICLE

摘要

A hybrid system includes a hybrid controller which controls the speed and torque of an engine based on the operated level of an accelerator pedal within a first range where the power generation efficiency of the system becomes equal to or higher than a preset power generation efficiency to allow the engine to operate at an engine operating point when the SOC detected by an SOC sensor is equal to or higher than an HEV low SOC, and which controls the speed and torque of the engine based on the operated level of the accelerator pedal within a second range where the power generated by a power generator motor becomes larger than that of the first range to allow the engine to operate at the engine operating point when the SOC detected by the SOC sensor is lower than the HEV low SOC.
