Abstract
The invention relates to a braking method for a hybrid vehicle () comprising a drivetrain () controlled by a drivetrain computer (), and a hydraulic braking system () controlled by a braking computer (). In this method, as soon as the drivetrain computer () detects that the electrical braking torque is decreasing, this drivetrain computer () informs the hydraulic braking computer () of the value of the reduction in electric braking torque. The braking computer () then operates the hydraulic braking system () in such a way that the hydraulic braking torque applied to the wheels () by the brakes () compensates for this reduction in electric braking torque.
