Abstract: A method for operating a hybrid vehicle which comprises at least one internal combustion engine with a fuel tank and a filter, and an additional motor for driving the vehicle. The filter is designed to receive fuel vapors from the fuel tank in a filtering mode and to discharge the fuel vapors to the internal combustion engine in a flushing mode. In the method, a current operating point of the internal combustion engine is detected and the flushing mode of the filter is activated according to the current operating point and an operating time of the vehicle.

Abstract: Systems and methods for traffic learning are described. One embodiment of a method includes predicting a vehicle route of a vehicle, determining historical traffic data related to at least one segment along the vehicle route, and determining an energy traffic budget for electric power consumption of the vehicle along the vehicle route, where the energy traffic budget is learned from the historical traffic data. Some embodiments include creating a schedule for transitioning between gasoline power and electric power for the vehicle route, implementing the schedule as the vehicle traverses the vehicle route, and in response to encountering traffic along the vehicle route, implementing the energy traffic budget.

Abstract: A method for measuring an engine load of a drive motor in a vehicle. Here, at least one parameter which characterizes the engine load is allocated a driving distance equivalent. This driving distance equivalent is then incremented by a driving distance counter. If the vehicle is equipped with a sailing functionality, the driven distance is counted only if the vehicle is moving and the drive train is coupled to the drive motor without slip. A rate of rotation sensor, a clutch sensor and a driving distance counter able to be switched on and off are required for running the method of the present invention. A computer program is used in addition.

Abstract: A control device for a hybrid vehicle having an engine, a motor, a clutch and an air conditioner, the engine and the motor being connected to each other via the clutch, the air conditioner having a compressor driven by the engine, has a controller. The hybrid vehicle has an EV mode in which the engine is disconnected from the motor by release of the clutch, and an HEV mode in which the engine rotates together with the motor by engagement of the clutch. The controller is configured to execute a diagnosis of whether the clutch is in a released state during selection of the EV mode. When the HEV mode is selected in response to an operation request for the air conditioner, the controller temporality switches the running mode to the EV mode based on a running history of the hybrid vehicle in a stop state of the hybrid vehicle.
