Zusammenfassung: | A vehicle includes a prime mover, such as an internal combustion engine, driving a transmission shaft, a kinetic energy recuperation system, including an electric machine fitted on the transmission shaft and a supercapacitor for recovering the braking energy delivered by the electric machine, at least one solar panel, that is connected to the electric machine and to the supercapacitor, and a controller that is configured to direct the energy captured by the solar panel(s) either to the electric machine or to the supercapacitor as a function of the torque demand on transmission shaft. |
