Abstract

A method for controlling a state of a drive train of a power train including at least one motive power source and a set of couplers and reducers of which respective engagements define a plurality of states of the drive train, by engagement of one or a plurality of energy sources in provision of torque and by the ratio of transmission of same to wheels. States targeted from a current state are ranked in real time on the basis of the difference between the motive force available in a current state and in each target state.
