A method of decoupling output torque from input torque during engine speed control of a hybrid powertrain for a vehicle comprises determining, via a controller, a virtual output torque required on an output member of a multi-mode transmission given a virtual input torque commanded on an input member of the multi-mode transmission for engine speed control in a selected mode of the multi-mode transmission such that rotational speed of the output member is unchanged to prevent undesired torque variation at the output member. The controller determines the virtual output torque via a first stored transfer function relating virtual output torque to virtual input torque based on modeled physical dynamics of the vehicle driveline for the selected mode of the multi-mode transmission. A hybrid powertrain includes an engine and a hybrid transmission, and a controller that controls the hybrid transmission according to the method.
