Abstract
A hybrid vehicle control device for controlling a hybrid vehicle with an engine and an electric motor as drive sources of the vehicle includes a high-load road travel determination unit configured to determine whether or not the vehicle is traveling on a high running resistance road surface on which a predetermined vehicle acceleration is unobtainable only by an output of the engine, and a motor output setting unit configured to set an output of the electric motor. If the vehicle is determined to be traveling on the high running resistance road surface by the high-load road travel determination unit, the motor output setting unit limits the output of the electric motor when a vehicle speed reaches a predetermined vehicle speed.
