Abstract
A method for controlling a hybrid drive of a vehicle, the hybrid drive having an electric drive and a fuel drive. A database which has assignments between route information and first and second route criteria is provided. The route information represents routes which may be traveled by the vehicle. The first route criterion represents a preferred use of the electric drive on the particular assigned route, and the second route criterion represents a preferred use of the fuel drive on the particular assigned route. Current route information which represents a route traveled by the vehicle is received, and a current route criterion assigned to the current route information is provided from the database, and control information is also provided for using the electric drive if the current route criterion is the first route criterion or for using the fuel drive if the current route criterion is the second route criterion.
