When there is an abnormality in communications between a motor ECU and an HVECU in an automobile, the motor ECU controls a motor such that creep torque or a given torque larger than the creep torque is delivered from the motor. Thus, when there is an abnormality in communications between the HVECU and the motor ECU, the automobile is able to run in a limp home mode.

A parallel hybrid drive train, in particular for a working machine, includes an internal combustion engine (1), an electrical machine (2) and hydraulic aggregates (3, 4, 5, 9) for driving working devices (6-8) and for moving the working machine. In order to increase the efficiency, the rotational speed of the internal combustion engine is lowered, that is to say the load point is moved. Increased power requirements are detected via a driver input and provide a desired rotational speed. The electrical machine assists the acceleration of the internal combustion engine to said desired rotational speed.

Systems and methods are provided for simulating rev-matching in hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs). In particular, increased engine response is provided while downshifting during acceleration. The transmission of an HEV may include an electronic control unit that controls the speed of the engine to simulate gears, and increases the speed of the engine responsive to a driver using the gear selector to shift from one of the simulated gears to a lower one of the simulated gears, thereby providing the desired rev-matching experience. The increased engine response can be reflected in a target engine speed that is calculated based on specific gear ratios associated with each of the simulated gears.

A battery discharge limit control system is provided. The system includes a motor driven by receiving the power stored in a battery and a clutch connected to the rotary shaft of the motor. Additionally, an engine includes the rotary shaft connected to the rotary shaft of the motor through the clutch and a transmission changes the rotational speed of the rotary shaft of the motor or the engine based on the input of the shift stage instruction to output the rotational speed to a driving wheel of a vehicle. A controller opens the clutch and drives the motor in the reverse rotation, when the input of the shift stage instruction is a reverse shift stage.

Since a maximum rotation speed of a second rotary machine is set to a lower value when a supercharging pressure is high than when the supercharging pressure is low, an engine torque decreases with an rotation speed of the second rotary machine which is relatively low and the rotation speed is less likely to fall into a high-rotation state. When the supercharging pressure is relatively low and the rotation speed is less likely to reach an upper-limit rotation speed of the second rotary machine, the maximum rotation speed is set to a relatively high value. Accordingly, the engine torque does not decrease to the rotation speed which is relatively high and power performance can be easily secured. As a result, it is possible to prevent a decrease in power performance due to the decrease in the engine torque and to prevent the rotation speed from falling into a high-rotation state.

A safety system for a baggage tractor is provided that addresses the problems associated with tipping over or flipping of vehicles due to excessive speed around turns. Additionally, the safety system for a baggage tractor is provided that is fully integrated to ease replacement of a combustion engine in a baggage tractors with an electric motor and automated safety control system.
