The strategy for emission reduction in the P2.5 hybrid system involves the optimization of engine torque, engine speed, catalyst heat duration, and motor torque regulation in a coordinated manner. In addition to employing traditional engine control methods used in HEV models, unique approaches can be utilized to effectively manage emissions. The primary principle is to ensure that the engine operates predominantly under steady-state conditions or limits its load to regulate emissions levels. The main contributions of this paper are as follows: The first is the optimization of catalyst heating stage. During the catalyst heating stage, the system divides it into one or two stages. In the first stage, the vehicle is driven by the motor while keeping the engine idle. This approach stabilizes catalyst heating and prevents fluctuations in air-fuel ratio caused by speed and load changes that could potentially worsen emissions performance.

In order to realize the series-parallel switching control of hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) with dual-motor hybrid configuration, a method of unpowered interrupt switching based on the coordinated control of three power sources was proposed by analyzing the series-parallel driving mode of the dual-motor hybrid configuration. The series to parallel switching process is divided into three stages: speed regulation stage, clutch combination and power source switching. The distribution control of speed regulating torque is carried out in the speed regulating stage. The speed adjustment torque is preferentially allocated to the power source of the input shaft (engine and P1) to carry out the lifting torque. Due to the high speed adjustment accuracy and fast response of the P1 motor, the input shaft is preferentially allocated to P1 for speed adjustment, that is, the torque intervention of P1.

Due to the objectives of achieving high fuel efficiency and drivability performance, a dual-drive hybrid system with two motors has been developed. Various drive modes are presented based on engine status, requested driver torque and power, as well as C0 status in different working conditions. The transition control of drive mode change poses a unique challenge for the dual-drive hybrid system. This study discusses the control strategies for transitioning between drive modes. The first type of transition mode is divided into four distinct phases. In the second mode transition, there are three phases: the synchronization phase involving P1 torque intervention, the C0 lock-up phase involving frozen P1 torque control and adjustment of C0 clutch torque and pressure correlation, and finally, the torque exchange phase. The third type of transition includes a dedicated torque transition phase followed by a C0 disengaged phase and concluding with a speed synchronization phase.
