Abstract
A method for operating a hybrid drive device of a motor vehicle is disclosed, wherein the hybrid drive device includes an internal combustion engine, which can be operatively connected to a first axle of the motor vehicle, a first electric motor, which can also be operatively connected to the first axle of the motor vehicle, and a second electric motor, which can be operatively connected to a second axle of the motor vehicle. The electrical energy used for operating the second electric motor is generated in a first mode of operation by the first electric motor driven by the internal combustion engine while increasing the output of the internal combustion engine, and in a second mode of operation is derived exclusively from an energy storage device for electrical energy.
