A method and apparatus for managing power in a hybrid vehicle is disclosed. The vehicle includes an engine, an electric motor, and an energy storage element coupled to the motor. The method involves receiving a request to supply operating power to drive the vehicle and responding to the request by selecting an apportionment of operating power between the engine and the motor from among a plurality of apportionments having respective operating costs such that the selected apportionment is associated with a minimum operating cost, the operating cost including at least an engine fuel consumption cost and a storage element lifetime cost. The method further involves causing power to be supplied by at least one of the engine and the motor in accordance with the selected apportionment.

1. A method for managing power in the hybrid vehicle, comprising: determining, based at least in part on one or more operating conditions of the hybrid vehicle, an amount of operating power to be supplied in response to a drive signal generated based on operator input; determining, for each of a plu
1. A method for managing power in the hybrid vehicle, comprising: determining, based at least in part on one or more operating conditions of the hybrid vehicle, an amount of operating power to be supplied in response to a drive signal generated based on operator input; determining, for each of a plurality of apportionments of the operating power between an engine of the hybrid vehicle and a motor-generator of the hybrid vehicle, an overall operating cost value, each overall operating cost value accounting for at least a cost value associated with the engine of the hybrid vehicle and one or more constraints of a storage element of the hybrid vehicle; selecting an apportionment of the operating power from among the plurality of apportionments of the operating power, the selected apportionment being the apportionment with a minimum determined overall operating cost value; and causing the operating power to be supplied by at least one of the engine and the motor-generator in accordance with the selected apportionment. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the cost value associated with the engine of the hybrid vehicle comprises an engine fuel consumption cost determined based at least in part on a fuel price. 3. The method of claim 1, further comprising receiving a signal representing an operating temperature of the engine, the cost value associated with the engine of the hybrid vehicle corresponding to the operating temperature of the engine. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein: the cost value associated with the engine of the hybrid vehicle comprises an engine fuel consumption cost; and for a particular apportionment of the operating power among the plurality of apportionments of the operating power, the engine fuel consumption cost is determined based at least in part on a fuel consumption cost associated with operating the engine to supply the particular apportionment of power. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein the one or more constraints of the storage element of the hybrid vehicle account for the state of charge of the storage element. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein the one or more constraints of the storage element of the hybrid vehicle account for the temperature of the storage element. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the one or more constraints of the storage element of the hybrid vehicle account for the voltage present on the storage element. 8. An apparatus for managing power in a hybrid vehicle, the vehicle comprising an engine, an electric motor, and a storage element coupled to the electric motor, the apparatus comprising a controller operably configured to: determine, based at least in part on one or more operating conditions of the hybrid vehicle, an amount of operating power to be supplied in response to a drive signal generated based on operator input; determine, for each of a plurality of apportionments of the operating power between the engine of the hybrid vehicle and the electric motor of the hybrid vehicle, an overall operating cost value, each overall operating cost value accounting for at least a cost value associated with the engine of the hybrid vehicle and one or more constraints of the storage element of the hybrid vehicle; select an apportionment of the operating power from among the plurality of apportionments of the operating power, the selected apportionment being the apportionment with a minimum determined overall operating cost value; and cause the operating power to be supplied by at least one of the engine and the motor-generator in accordance with the selected apportionment. 9. The apparatus of claim 8, wherein the cost value associated with the engine of the hybrid vehicle comprises an engine fuel consumption cost determined based at least in part on a fuel price. 10. The apparatus of claim 8, wherein the controller is further operably configured to receive a signal representing an operating temperature of the engine, wherein the cost value associated with the engine of the hybrid vehicle corresponds to the operating temperature of the engine. 11. The apparatus of claim 8, wherein: the cost value associated with the engine of the hybrid vehicle comprises an engine fuel consumption cost; and for a particular apportionment of the operating power among the plurality of apportionments of the operating power, the engine fuel consumption cost is determined based at least in part on a fuel consumption cost associated with operating the engine to supply the particular apportionment of power. 12. The apparatus of claim 8, wherein the one or more constraints of the storage element of the hybrid vehicle account for the state of charge of the storage element. 13. The apparatus of claim 8, wherein the one or more constraints of the storage element of the hybrid vehicle account for the temperature of the storage element. 14. The method of claim 8, wherein the one or more constraints of the storage element of the hybrid vehicle account for the voltage present on the storage element. 15. A hybrid vehicle comprising: an engine; an electric motor; an energy storage element coupled to the motor; and a controller, the controller operably configured to: determine, based at least in part on one or more operating conditions of the hybrid vehicle, an amount of operating power to be supplied in response to a drive signal generated based on operator input; determine, for each of a plurality of apportionments of the operating power between the engine of the hybrid vehicle and the electric motor of the hybrid vehicle, an overall operating cost value, each overall operating cost value accounting for at least a cost value associated with the engine of the hybrid vehicle and one or more constraints of the storage element of the hybrid vehicle; select an apportionment of the operating power from among the plurality of apportionments of the operating power, the selected apportionment being the apportionment with a minimum determined overall operating cost value; and cause the operating power to be supplied by at least one of the engine and the motor-generator in accordance with the selected apportionment. 16. The hybrid vehicle of claim 15, wherein the cost value associated with the engine of the hybrid vehicle comprises an engine fuel consumption cost determined based at least in part on a fuel price. 17. The hybrid vehicle of claim 15, wherein the controller is further operably configured to receive a signal representing an operating temperature of the engine, wherein the cost value associated with the engine of the hybrid vehicle corresponds to the operating temperature of the engine. 18. The hybrid vehicle of claim 15, wherein: the cost value associated with the engine of the hybrid vehicle comprises an engine fuel consumption cost; and for a particular apportionment of the operating power among the plurality of apportionments of the operating power, the engine fuel consumption cost is determined based at least in part on a fuel consumption cost associated with operating the engine to supply the particular apportionment of power. 19. The hybrid vehicle of claim 15, wherein the one or more constraints of the storage element of the hybrid vehicle account for the state of charge of the storage element. 20. The hybrid vehicle of claim 15, wherein the one or more constraints of the storage element of the hybrid vehicle account for the temperature of the storage element. 21. The method of claim 15, wherein the one or more constraints of the storage element of the hybrid vehicle account for the voltage present on the storage element.
