A method for exiting from a recuperation phase in a parallel hybrid vehicle includes, in a first step, the vehicle is in a recuperation phase, started by means of a trigger, with a predefined recuperation driving demand, and, in a second step, the electric machine is brought to an increased rotational speed during the recuperation phase. In a third step, a phase for departing from the recuperation phase is started by means of a trigger, wherein, in this phase, the internal combustion engine is made available for coupling to the electric machine, such that a target rotational speed determined between the internal combustion engine to be connected and the electric machine for the connection to the transmission input is set, and in parallel, by means of an upshift, a highest possible gear ratio for the connection to the drivetrain is set, in order to satisfy a present driving demand. In a fourth step, the departure from the recuperation phase is completed.

An agricultural work machine comprising a front axle and a rear axle, an internal combustion engine, at least one hybrid module, and a transmission device is disclosed. The internal combustion engine and the hybrid module are each operatively connected to the transmission device with both output power from the internal combustion engine and output power from the hybrid module absorbed via the transmission device. The output powers are transferred together to the rear axle so that rear wheels of the agricultural work machine arranged on the rear axle can be driven. The internal combustion engine is arranged in a front region of the agricultural work machine and the hybrid module is arranged in a rear region of the agricultural work machine. The output powers from the internal combustion engine and the hybrid module are supplied separately to the transmission device.

A system for providing power to a vehicle includes a combustion engine having a low number of cylinders. A mechanically driven charging mechanism is attached to the combustion engine to provide pressurized air to the combustion engine and generate increased power. The combustion engine includes a 2nd order mass balance shaft that is operatively coupled to a crankshaft of the engine. The 2nd order mass balance shaft rotates at a higher speed than the crankshaft and counters inertial forces generated by the pistons of the engine. A compressor of the mechanically driven charging mechanism is attached to the 2nd order mass balance shaft, such that the mechanically driven charging mechanism is mechanically driven by rotation of the 2nd order mass balance shaft. The high speed of the 2nd order mass balance shaft drives the compressor of the mechanically driven charging mechanism.
