Abstract

A method for starting a combustion engine fitted to a hybrid or dual-mode motor vehicle includes starting an additional motor upon a setpoint torque demanded by a driver of the vehicle, with a view to accelerating the vehicle beyond a threshold speed at which the combustion engine is driven beyond a stalling speed threshold when the combustion engine is mechanically coupled to wheels of the vehicle.
