A method for temperature control of a traction battery includes predefining a target temperature which the traction battery should have at the end of a journey and upon arrival at a fast-charging station; predicting a temperature which the traction battery will have at the end of the journey and upon arrival at the fast-charging station; determining a temperature difference between the target temperature and the predicted temperature; predefining a temperature control specification for temperature control of the traction battery during the journey of the motor vehicle to the fast-charging station in accordance with the determined temperature difference, so that the target temperature prevails upon arrival at the fast-charging station; and controlling the temperature of the traction battery according to the predetermined temperature control specification during the journey of the vehicle.

A method for automatically setting an operating mode of a hybrid vehicle includes determining whether a distance to the destination is greater than a purely electrically travelable range of the hybrid vehicle, wherein the hybrid vehicle is automatically put into a hybrid mode if the distance to the destination is greater than the purely electrically travelable range of the hybrid vehicle, and the hybrid vehicle is automatically put into a purely electrical drive mode if the distance to the destination is not greater than the purely electrically travelable range of the hybrid vehicle. A corresponding control device and hybrid vehicle are also disclosed.
