Abstract: A method for assisting the driver of a vehicle (10) during a driving maneuver such as, for example, a parking or positioning maneuver. In such a case, a reference trajectory (16) along which the vehicle (10) is to be moved is determined. A steering wheel position which is to be set and which steers the vehicle along the reference trajectory (16) is indicated to the driver during the driving maneuver. A steering angle deviation between the actual steering angle which is actually set by the driver and the setpoint steering angle which corresponds to the requested steering wheel position is corrected independently of the driver.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for assisting the driver of a vehicle (10) when performing a driving maneuver, such as a parking or shunting maneuver. In this case, a reference trajectory (16) is determined, along which the vehicle (10) is to be moved. A steering wheel position to be set and controlling the vehicle along the reference trajectory (16) is indicated to the driver during the driving maneuver. The vehicle longitudinal speed is influenced independently of the driver in the event of a steering angle deviation between the actual steering angle actually set by the driver and the desired steering angle corresponding to the requested steering wheel position. As a result, the driver can be given a greater reaction time in order to set the indicated steering wheel position.

Abstract: A hybrid drive, in particular for vehicles has a variable-ratio gear unit with a branch which can be driven by a primary motor. The gear unit is also connected in a rotationally rigid manner to a rotatable part of a first electric machine. A branch of the gear unit is connected in a rotationally rigid manner to a rotatable rotor of a second electric machine. Another branch connected in a rotationally rigid manner to an output shaft and to which the likewise rotatably arranged other machine component of the first electric machine is connected in a rotationally rigid manner. The rotor of the second machine can be fixed or released for rotation by a brake.
