Hybrid vehicles are among the most promising solutions for a sustainable mobility. Among the multitude of hybrid architectures three architectures seem to be equally promising (series, parallel and series/parallel) and it is possible to find them in a multitude of applications like motor bikes, city- and family-cars as well as busses. Each application needs an adapted control strategy. The most important tool in the development of control strategies is a well configured model. This article presents a multi-architecture/multi- application model for hybrid vehicles using energetic macroscopic representation and inversion based control design. This approach is successfully used to evaluate the power split and fuel consumption of different vehicles on different driving cycles.
