Abstract

A method for controlling driving of a hybrid vehicle includes: calculating, by a controller, an amount of short distance energy reduction, an amount of middle distance energy reduction, and an amount of long distance energy reduction of the hybrid vehicle based on forward driving information of the hybrid vehicle according to a distance; determining, by the controller, a maximum amount of energy reduction by comparing the amount of short distance energy reduction, the amount of middle distance energy reduction, and the amount of long distance energy reduction; and controlling, by the controller, the hybrid vehicle to travel based on the maximum amount of energy reduction.
