Abstract
A driving control method of a hybrid vehicle is provided. The method includes acquiring link information on each of a current link in which the vehicle currently travels in an electric vehicle (EV) mode and a forward link connected to the current link ahead of the current link. A first average driving load of the current line and a second average driving load of the forward link are calculated based on the acquired link information. When the second average driving load is greater than the first average driving load a minimum required state of charge (SoC) based on the second average driving load and a preset driving mode switch reference are determined.
