Re: MG1 brake?
It should exist, as many diagrams from many sources show this.
Yes, it could be used turn over the ICE when the car is already moving.
Slowing or stopping MG1 would force torque from spinning MG2 into the ICE.
It is possible, even likely this happens, just not 100% confirmed.
The other possibility would involve MG1 slowing or stopping itself, with the addition of battery current. Which sounds more plausible?
