After a compact class car has been equipped with the Autark Hybrid drive line initial operation, lasting and systematic optimisation of the Autark Hybrid in various test driving activities are accomplished with this prototype vehicle. As an objective adjusting the Autark Hybrid drive line to acceptable and reliable driving characteristics in everyday traffic is followed. A first step consists of an enhanced operation start-up of the single components within the vehicle environment and is increased gradually up to the complete function range of the drive line system. Based on this on the level of single components as well as on the interaction of components in combination with the implemented operation strategy possibilities of optimising are pointed out in an iterative way and investigated. Gained results finally are transferred to test vehicle's configuration. For the investigations within an extensive test program a large variety of driving tests at a roller test bench, on a separate test road and on public roads is performed. Besides well chosen, different operation conditions with regard to Autark Hybrid's characteristics test driving in everyday public road traffic presents the main part of the tests. The Autark Hybrid prototype vehicle demonstrates successfully operation in everyday life. Function, capabilities and driveability are shown at the example of a test drive journey with wide situation range. Furthermore a first measurement of fuel consumption is done, which has to be deepened in the future test program of the Autark Hybrid test vehicle.
