An internal combustion engine for a motor car has an exhaust tract which can be flowed through by exhaust gas of the internal combustion engine, a turbine wheel arranged in the exhaust tract and driven by the exhaust gas, and an exhaust gas recirculation device which has an exhaust gas recirculation conduit via which at least a part of the exhaust gas can be branched off from the exhaust tract at a branching point arranged upstream of the turbine wheel and can be recirculated to a suction tract which can be flowed through by air of the internal combustion engine and can be introduced into the suction tract at an introduction point. A compressor wheel which can be driven via electricity to compress the air flowing through the suction tract is arranged in the suction tract upstream or downstream of the introduction point.

Methods and systems are provided for turbine temperature control in an engine system having multiple staged charge boosting devices. In one example, compressed air is provided by a turbocharger compressor until an outlet temperature of the compressor reaches a limit. Thereafter, a compressor of a downstream supercharger is operated to share the load
