Abstract
There is provided a drive device configured to impose a more appropriate limitation on driving of a motor. The drive device comprises a motor configured to generate an induced voltage according to a rotation speed, and an inverter configured to drive the motor. Upon satisfaction of a predetermined condition to impose a limitation on driving of the motor, the drive device performs a drive limitation that imposes a larger limitation on driving of the motor when the induced voltage of the motor is higher than an input voltage that is input from a power storage device side to the inverter, compared with a limitation imposed when the induced voltage of the motor is equal to or lower than the input voltage.
