Abstract
A control apparatus includes a diesel engine having a throttle valve and a fuel injection valve, an electric driving machine that assists in drive of the engine, and a controller configured to stop the engine automatically when a first condition for automatically stopping the engine is established during an operation of the engine. At this time, the controller is configured to operate the throttle valve to a closing side in response to establishment of a second condition that is established prior to establishment of the first condition, and stop supply of fuel by the fuel injection valve in response to subsequent establishment of the first condition.
