Abstract
An electromotive vehicle includes: an electrical storage device; a rotary electric machine; a transmission device; an engine; and an electronic control unit. The electronic control unit is configured to, when decelerating force acts on the vehicle due to engine brake force of the engine and upshift control is executed in the transmission device and when an upper limit value of input electric power that is allowed at the time of charging the electrical storage device is smaller than a threshold, control the rotary electric machine such that torque of the rotary electric machine gradually increases by the time the upshift control completes, at which the decelerating force that acts on the vehicle becomes decelerating force reduced as a result of the upshift control.
