Abstract

When an accelerator operating speed is greater than a quick depression threshold value, a start threshold value is set to a value that is smaller than a selection threshold value between a single-drive mode and a double-drive mode in an EV drive mode. Then, when a required torque becomes greater than the start threshold value, an engine is started.
