Abstract:
A method for controlling a mild hybrid vehicle is disclosed. The method includes determining, by a controller, whether a state of charge (SOC) of a first battery that supplies electric power to a starter-generator exceeds a reference value. The method further includes operating, by the controller, the starter-generator and a starter that is separate from the starter-generator and receives electric power from a second battery at a voltage lower than that of the first battery. A combustion engine of the mild hybrid vehicle is started using the starter-generator and the starter when it is determined that the state of charge of the first battery exceeds the reference value and it is determined that an ambient air temperature of the engine exceeds a temperature reference value.

Claim (Index 7):
The method of  claim 2 , wherein the controller operates a relay of the mild hybrid vehicle in order to apply a current greater than a current reference value to the starter so that the starter starts the engine when it is determined that the ambient air temperature of the engine is equal to or less than the temperature reference value.
