Abstract
A method for operating a drive system for a motor vehicle having an internal combustion engine and having an electric motor. The internal combustion engine can be operated in a partial operating state as well as in a full operating state. A first threshold is defined for a target drive torque to be applied by the drive system for a switchover from the partial to the full operating state. After the first threshold is exceeded, a switchover is delayed for a defined period of time. A difference between the target drive torque and the actual drive torque of the internal combustion engine is compensated for by the electric motor. After the period of time has elapsed, a switchover from the partial operating state into the full operating state takes place if the first threshold value continues to be exceeded or a compensating operation of the electric motor is ended.
