| Summary: | A method and a device for triggering a hybrid vehicle are described; the vehicle is driven by an internal combustion engine (
7
) and/or an electric motor (
5
) as specified by an operating controller (
1
); the percentage contribution of the electric motor drive is controlled as a function of data which pertains to the travel route and is reported to the operating controller (
1
), taking into account a state of charge (BL) of an energy accumulator (
4
) for electric power. Control which is advantageous with regard to consumption and utilization of power is achieved by the fact that this data includes altitude information, which is used as the basis for controlling the percentage contribution of the electric motor drive, and the charge of the energy accumulator (
4
) does not drop below a minimum state of charge level (ML) at which essential basic vehicle functions are still ensured, as defined in the operating controller (
1
). |
