METHOD FOR CALCULATING A MANAGEMENT SETPOINT FOR THE COMSUMPTION OF FUEL AND ELECTRIC CURRENT BY A HYBRID MOTOR VEHICLE

A method is for calculating a management setpoint for the consumption of fuel and of electric current by a hybrid motor vehicle including at least one electric motor that is supplied with electric current by a traction battery and an internal combustion engine that runs on fuel. The method includes: dividing a journey into segments; acquiring attributes for each segment; for each segment, acquiring a relationship between the fuel and electrical consumption; determining an optimal consumption point in each acquired relationship to maximize discharging the traction battery over the segments for which use of the internal combustion engine is not authorized, minimize the fuel consumption of the hybrid motor vehicle over the entire journey, and maximize the discharging of the traction battery upon completion of the journey; and developing a setpoint for power management over the entire journey, according to the coordinates of the optimal points.
