Abstract:
A system for managing a power source in a vehicle having an engine and an electric machine can set first and second discharge limits for the power source, where the second discharge limit is higher than the first discharge limit. A buffer value can be determined as a function of at least the second discharge limit and an engine-on power requirement. A driver demand for power can be determined, and the engine started when the engine is off and the driver demand for power exceeds the buffer value.
