Presentation
the HYbrid4 technology allows two sources of
energy to be associated in an effective manner:
the Diesel HDi engine, which drives the front
wheels and the electric motor, which drives the
rear wheels.
th
ese two motors can operate alternately or
simultaneously, according to the hybrid mode
selected and the driving conditions.
th
e electric motor alone provides power for
the vehicle in "Z
eV
" (Zero e
m
issions Vehicle)
mode, and in "Auto" mode for running at slow
speed and low load. It also assists the Diesel
engine when moving off, accelerating and
changing gear.
th
e battery that powers the electric motor is
recharged during phases of deceleration and
stores the energy for subsequent use.

Main parts of the HYbrid4 system
the HDi Diesel engine - 1, located at the front, drives the front wheels and provides most of the
power needed to drive the vehicle.
It is fitted with an alternator-starter motor (Stop & Star t ) - 5 which recharges the batteries and
provides additional power when needed (in 4x4 mode).
th
e electric motor - 2 , located at the rear, drives the rear wheels on its own, or supplements the
Diesel engine, according to the hybrid mode selected.
It recovers energy and charges the batteries during phases of deceleration of the vehicle and is
active up to 70 mph (120 km/h).
A 200 V NI-MH high voltage batter y - 3 , provides a source of energy for the rear electric motor.
Its charging rate is managed automatically by the vehicle during phases of deceleration.
It is located in a compartment in the boot, access to which is restricted to trained service
technicians.
th
e battery state of charge is indicated by 8 horizontal or vertical bars (depending on the screen).
th
e conventional battery , located under the bonnet, powers the vehicle's 12 V systems. It is
recharged automatically by the high voltage network.

the electronic power super visor - 4 automatically manages the operation of the two power units
(Diesel and electric) to provide the lowest consumption.
An inverter and a transformer are needed to manage the electric power.
th
e inverter acts on the torque of the electric motor, by regulating the current coming from the high
voltage battery pack. Its operating range is between 150 and 270 volts.
th
e transformer converts the 200 V of the battery pack to 12 V, to power the vehicle's ancillary
systems.
th
e alternator-starter motor - 5 assures the Stop & Star t function which allows the Diesel
engine to be put into standby during stops (traffic lights, a stop, or in a traffic jam, for example) or
during phases of running in all-electric mode.
th
e stopping and restarting of the Diesel engine is done in a way that is instantaneous and
transparent for the driver.
It also provides additional charging of the batteries (4x4 mode for example or under-charged high
voltage battery).
th
e electronic gearbox - 6 provides, in automatic mode, significant savings in fuel consumption
compared to a conventional manual gearbox, thanks to its electronic control system.
It also offers improved driving pleasure with the possibility at any time of choosing the gear
changing mode: automatic or manual, using the paddles located behind the steering wheel.
