Abstract

A hybrid vehicle includes a generator to be driven by an internal combustion engine to generate an electric power. The internal combustion engine is to drive vehicle wheels via a hydraulic clutch. The electric power is to be supplied to an electric motor to drive the vehicle wheels. An oil pump is to be driven by the internal combustion engine to supply oil to the electric motor and the generator and to the hydraulic clutch. A valve is to decrease a first amount of the oil to be supplied to the electric motor and the generator and to increase a second amount of the oil to be supplied to the hydraulic clutch when the hydraulic clutch is in an engaged state. The valve is to increase the first amount of the oil and to decrease the second amount of the oil when the hydraulic clutch is in a disengaged state.
