Hybrid vehicles and control methods for hybrid vehicles. The vehicles and methods are adapted for use with restricted emissions zones, including zero emission zones. The battery state of charge for a hybrid vehicle is controlled to enable passage through a zero emissions zone without the use of the engine in the zero emissions zone. Multiple approaches to the analysis are highlighted.
