A method for operating a hybrid drive device of a motor vehicle is disclosed, wherein the hybrid drive device includes an internal combustion engine, which can be operatively connected to a first axle of the motor vehicle, a first electric motor, which can also be operatively connected to the first axle of the motor vehicle, and a second electric motor, which can be operatively connected to a second axle of the motor vehicle. The electrical energy used for operating the second electric motor is generated in a first mode of operation by the first electric motor driven by the internal combustion engine while increasing the output of the internal combustion engine, and in a second mode of operation is derived exclusively from an energy storage device for electrical energy.

Method for operating a hybrid drive device for a motor vehicle

It is known to charge the battery in a hybrid vehicle with a generator such that the efficiency (electric power per fuel quantity) is maximal. It is known that the consumption-optimized mode can be terminated in order to charge the battery faster. A mathematical calculation rule is applied to the optimal value of the efficiency in order to determine a value for an efficiency which then indicates a load point shift for the internal combustion engine. In particular, constant percentages can be used which are applied to the inverse efficiency.
