To further improve the fuel economy of a novel series-parallel hybrid electric bus（SPHEB）for purpose

and for the problem that the most current control strategy only reflect the driving state of vehicle and the limitation of their application

a driver style adaptive control strategy is developed

which is constituted a fuzzy rule based driver style recognition

and integrated power balancing strategy with accelerator pedal opening control algorithm of battery power

the adaptive control strategy of driver style is built.The results of simulation demonstrate that the proposed strategy can be more efficient that the normal strategy

the improvement of fuel economy is up to 7.91%.
