Abstract
A hybrid vehicle is equipped with a drive unit, and an automatic transmission. The automatic transmission includes engagement elements that can transmit power between the drive unit and driving wheels. The drive unit includes an engine, a first motor generator, a second motor generator, and a planetary gear mechanism. The hybrid vehicle is further equipped with a mechanical oil pump and an electrical oil pump, and a controller. The controller continues operating the electrical oil pump while the internal combustion engine is not in operation after the internal combustion engine is stopped as a result of a system stop operation by a user while the vehicle is running at a vehicle speed equal to or higher than a predetermined value.
