Abstract
A motor vehicle driven by an internal combustion engine is equipped with at least two auxiliary units and with an electric machine connected to a power source. The electric machine can be coupled to the auxiliary units by means of a dual clutch device. A control device can actuate the dual clutch device for coupling the auxiliary units to the electric machine according to preselected priorities. One or the other auxiliary unit, or all auxiliary units, or no auxiliary unit may be coupled to the electric machine.
