Starting (Drive by MG2)
Supply of electrical power from the HV battery
to MG2 provides force to drive the front wheels.

engine via the planetary gears, MG1 is driven by
the engine via the planetary gears, in order to
supply the generated electricity to MG2.

MG1 is rotated by the engine via the planetary
gears, in order to charge the HV battery.
During Deceleration Driving

from the front wheels is recovered and converted
into electrical energy and used to recharge the
HV battery by means of MG2.
