Abstract
A control system for a hybrid vehicle configured to prevent an excessive drop in an engine speed and while reducing vibrations when decelerating the vehicle abruptly. When an abrupt decelerating operation is detected in the fixed mode, a controller shifts an operating mode from the fixed mode to the high mode or the low mode by disengaging one of engagement devices in which a torque applied thereto in the fixed mode is reduced smaller by an inertia torque of the motor resulting from the decelerating operation.
