METHOD FOR CONTROLLING AND THERMALLY REGULATING A SYSTEM FOR EXTENDING AUTONOMY OF A MOTOR VEHICLE

摘要

Disclosed is a method for driving an range extending system for a motor vehicle equipped with an electric motor (2) adapted to be supplied with electric current by a traction battery (3), the range extending system including an range extender (1) that can be activated to supply the traction battery and/or the electric motor with electric current and a cooling circuit (10) for the range extender, in which provision is made to acquire a state of charge of the traction battery and, if the state of charge is below a charge threshold, to activate the range extender. Additionally, the charge threshold has a variable value, which is a function of an outside temperature of the air outside the motor vehicle.
