Full hybrids often have a lead/acid battery to guarantee the engine will start when the ISG won't work because the lithium battery pack is dead
Yup. Of course, the lithium battery pack isn't completely dead - the ISG monitoring system will disconnect it before that happens. Anything powered by lithium batteries should turn off automatically before the pack reaches the point of no return - you can see this happening with your mobile phone & laptop .
