Abstract
At a time of HV traveling entailing a load operation of an engine in a CD mode, an electronic control unit sets a required torque Tr* by using a map for a CS mode, in which the required torque Tr* is set to be lower than in a map for the CD mode, as at a time of the CS mode. Then, the electronic control unit control the engine and a motor for traveling in accordance with the required torque Tr*. Accordingly, a rise in the required torque Tr* can be suppressed compared to setting of the required torque Tr* using the map for the CD mode and a sense of high-rpm idling attributable to a rise in a rotation speed of the engine can be inhibited from being felt by a driver.
