Abstract
A control system for a hybrid vehicle that reduces delay in engagement of a clutch when shifting an operating mode by manipulating the clutch. A controller is configured to adjust a speed of a first motor to a first standby speed at which the speed difference in a first clutch is reduced when an operating mode will be shifted from a single-motor mode to a first mode, and adjust a speed of the first motor to a second standby speed at which a speed difference in the second clutch is reduced when the operating mode will be shifted from the single-motor mode to a second mode.
