Abstract

A method controls a hybrid transmission for a motor vehicle that can operate according to at least two kinematic modes involving various connections of at least one internal combustion engine, at least one electric motor, and at least two drive wheels. The method includes controlling the transition between kinematic modes in accordance with the current kinematic mode during the start of the transition and a kinematic mode setting, if it is determined that the current kinematic mode is not equal to the kinematic mode of the transition and that the kinematic mode setting is not equal to the final kinematic mode, making a decision regarding the suitability of a transition interruption, during a change of request of the driver during which it is determined whether an interruption of the action is underway, and then continuing the transition or undertaking a new transition according to the result.
