A range extended plug-in hybrid electric vehicle 5 is disclosed having a high voltage electric generator 22 driven by a reciprocating piston engine 10 via a coupling 11 that includes a flywheel 11F fastened to a crankshaft 10C of the reciprocating piston engine 10, a resilient rotary drive 11S and a drive plate 11D driveably connected to an input shaft 22S of the high voltage electric generator 22. An electronic controller 31 is used to model variations in output torque (T) from the reciprocating piston engine 10 and control the driving torque (G) required for the high voltage electric generator 22 based upon the modelled torque variations.
