An information providing system for a vehicle includes: first and second mobile terminals worn by a driver and fellow passenger, respectively of the vehicle, and an information providing device, which are communicated with each other. Further, the information providing device includes a control unit that executes information provision control for generating information indicating that the physical condition of the fellow passenger is the predetermined state and transmitting the generated information to the first mobile terminal, in a case where it is determined that the physical condition of the fellow passenger is the predetermined state.

Monitoring biological information of a passenger in a vehicle

A control system for a vehicle performs torque down control to reduce torque of an engine by cutting off supply of fuel to at least one of the cylinders of the engine during an inertia phase of a power-on upshift. During the torque down control, the throttle opening is reduced to smaller than a throttle opening including an amount by which the throttle opening is increased so as to compensate for a part of the amount of torque reduction, by means of one or more cylinders to which the fuel continues to be supplied.
