Abstract
A vehicle includes an engine, a first MG, a planetary gear mechanism to which the engine, the first MG, and a counter shaft are connected, and an HV-ECU configured to control the engine and the first MG. The engine includes a turbocharger that boosts suctioned air to be fed to the engine. The HV-ECU controls the engine and the first MG to initially decrease the engine's rotation speed and simultaneously increase torque that the engine generates when on a map indicating a relationship between the engine's rotation speed and torque generated by the engine the controller shifts a first operating point to a second operating point at which torque generated by the engine and the rotation speed of the engine are higher than at the first operating point and the turbocharger boosts suctioned air.
