Abstract

A method selects a target state of a vehicle driveline connecting at least a combustion engine and/or an electric machine to the wheels of the vehicle by a transmission, from a set of states present on the transmission, which are defined by various combinations of couplers and reduction gears thereof in order to transfer torque from the combustion engine and/or from the electric machine to the wheels over one or more gear ratios. The method includes filtering to determine, from a list of available states, state consecutive eligible sets as a function of combined driveability constraints.
