METHOD OF OIL PRE-CONDITIONING FOR AN ELECTRIC POWERTRAIN OF A VEHICLE
A method of oil pre-conditioning for an electric powertrain for a vehicle configured to provide electric propulsion of the vehicle, said electric powertrain comprising the first electric motor being linked to the first gear module, a secondary shaft being linked to the second gear module, the second electric motor being linked to the third gear module through a motor shaft, the differential being shared by both electric motors,
The electric powertrain is surrounded by an oil. The method includes the steps of selecting an oil pre-conditioning configuration wherein the secondary shaft does not rotate and at least one of the first electric motor or the second electric motor rotates while the other is in driving mode leading to the heating of the oil to reach a threshold temperature and applying the selected oil pre-conditioning configuration.

Vehicle control method and vehicle control device
In a vehicle control method, when drive force which a second electric motor is requested to output increases in a state where an internal combustion engine is stopped, drive force which the second electric motor outputs by using electric power supplied by a battery is limited to a lower level than maximum drive force determined from electric power which can be supplied by the battery to drive an electric-powered vehicle. Then, the drive force which the second electric motor outputs by using the electric power supplied by the battery is increased over time in a period from when the second electric motor outputs the drive force limited to the lower level to when the internal combustion engine is fired up and a first electric motor starts power generation.

A hybrid vehicle may include: an engine including a plurality of cylinders for generating power required for driving the hybrid vehicle by combustion of fuel; a first motor starting the engine and selectively operating as a generator to generate electrical energy; a second motor generating power required for driving the hybrid vehicle; a clutch provided between the engine and the second motor; and a controller configured for synchronizing a velocity of the second motor and an engine velocity and for coupling the clutch, in a transition section in which the engine moves from a stop state to an optimal operation point area as an operation area of the engine, and gradually decreasing a torque of the second motor and gradually adjusting the number of combusted cylinders among the plurality of combustion chambers to gradually increase the engine torque.
Control device
A vehicle includes a display device that displays information indicating an operation state of an internal combustion engine. A display control device which is a control device that controls the display device includes an acquisition unit configured to acquire the operation state of the internal combustion engine. The display control device includes a display control unit that switches information which is displayed on the display device between a warm-up indicator for notifying that warm-up of the internal combustion engine is being performed and a warm-up completion indicator for notifying that warm-up of the internal combustion engine has been completed. The display control unit is configured to prohibit switching from the warm-up completion indicator to the warm-up indicator when the warm-up completion indicator is being displayed on the display device while the internal combustion engine is operating.
Control device for hybrid vehicle
A control device is capable of executing: an ignition time calculation process of calculating a target ignition time of an ignition plug; a stop process of stopping combustion control for some cylinders of a plurality of cylinders; and a compensation process of controlling a motor generator during the stop process, such that the motor generator compensates a drive power that is lost due to the stop of the combustion control. The control device prohibits the execution of the stop process when the target ignition time calculated in the ignition time calculation process is on a retard side of a predetermined prescribed time.
