Hybrid vehicle includes: an axle (FA, IA, RA); an internal combustion engine (CE); an auxiliary motor (AM); a torque distributor comprising a first transmission shaft (2) and a second transmission shaft (3) parallel to each other; and control means for controlling the torque distributor to switch to an electric traction mode by carrying out at least the following steps: acquisition of vehicle speed; and if the vehicle speed is non-zero, then selection of the most appropriate gear ratio among the at least two selectable gear ratios. The transmission shafts (2, 3) include two opposite ends ((21, 22), (31, 32)) and rotating connection means (7) including at least two selectable gear ratios (23/33, 24/34). The second end (22) of the first transmission shaft (2) is operatively connected/connectable with the axle (FA, IA, RA), and one end (31, 32) of the second transmission shaft (3) is operatively connected/connectable with the auxiliary motor.
