Patent ID: 8676424

Claim:
A drive system for a motor vehicle comprising: at least two independent drive devices configured to drive at least two drive axles which are independent of one another, at least one of the drive devices being an electric drive; a power electronics system; an energy storage arrangement; and a control device including: a drive control module configured to provide a recuperation limiting value for each electric drive, a recuperation control module configured to combine the recuperation limiting values suitably so as to form a maximum recuperation total limiting value, and a brake control module configured to provide a total braking torque that is requested by a driver or by an assistance system, such that the recuperation control module is configured to derive a recuperation total torque that is less than the recuperation total limiting value and is configured to also derive recuperation partial torques, which are each smaller than or equal to the recuperation limiting values, for each electric drive, wherein in the case of a total braking torque that is greater than the recuperation total limiting value the brake control module is configured to generate an additional hydraulic brake pressure p hydr and transmits the additional hydraulic brake pressure p hydr to a brake system.
