An auxiliary fan based hybrid cooling system of an electric machine is contemplated. The hybrid cooling system comprises a propeller positioned on an exterior portion of an enclosure and mechanically coupled to a rotor, at least one electronic component, a stator, the rotor, and an auxiliary fan disposed within the enclosure, and wherein: in a single cooling mode, the propeller rotates to generate air that is channeled into the enclosure, in a dual cooling mode: the propeller rotates to generate the air that is channeled into the enclosure, a coupling mechanism simultaneously engages the rotor and the auxiliary fan and links the propeller to the auxiliary fan by the engaging of the rotor with the auxiliary fan, and the auxiliary fan, rotates responsive to the rotation of the propeller in the dual cooling mode.
