maybe this is relevant..
Pretty sure Ive seen mentioned that Prius 200 volt battery is bridged by 3 series connected diodes which increase voltage to an absolute max of 600 (200+200+200) volts, with a more normal 500 volt operating voltage. 500V becomes the working voltage, or the voltage the inverter is able to continuously supply.
Incidentally the IC engine of XW20 is 1500cc 76hp, and electric supply to 2 motors provides MG1 and MG2 is 67hp @1200 RPM with 295 pound-feet of torque for a net of 110hp.
It sounds like this is similar to how your system is meant to work?
