ABSTRACT:
A method of power output level control for a hybrid powertrain system includes the step of checking if there is a predetermined level of energy stored in a energy storage apparatus. The method further includes the step of checking if there is a predetermined level of power available if there is a predetermined level of energy. The method also includes the step of reserving a predetermined power level amount from the energy storage apparatus if there is power available. The method includes the step of determining if a predetermined enabling condition is met and releasing the reserved power level amount if the predetermined enabling condition is met.
