摘要 |
The invention relates to a method for controlling a hybrid vehicle, the hybrid vehicle having at least two different mechanisms for driving the vehicle, the method comprising the following steps:
- determining the present position of the vehicle,
- determining driving mechanism constraints or preferences for certain geographical regions,
- verifying whether driving mechanism preferences or constraints exist for the present vehicle position, and, in the affirmative,
- determining the actual driving mechanism status of the vehicle, and
- verifying whether the actual driving mechanism status is in accordance with the determined constraints or preferences.
The constraints may preferably comprise zero-emission areas in which the internal combustion engine of the vehicle is not allowed to run. Further claims are included for a control system. |
