Abstract
A control method is implemented in a vehicle comprising an internal-combustion engine providing a first torque and coupled to a gearbox by a coupling device comprising a hydraulic circuit and delivering a second torque from the first torque in a coupling position, and an electric motor installed between the coupling device and gearbox and producing, from the second torque, a third torque having a negative value opposite to that of the first torque to charge a battery. This method comprises a step (-) in which, in the event of a transition between neutral and parking positions during a charging phase, a nullification of the third torque produced is triggered to nullify the first torque before a sudden placement of the coupling device in a decoupling position.
