Abstract
A vehicle includes a motor, a second drive source, and a drive controller. The motor is a first drive source configured to drive wheels. The motor has a plurality of switchable modes that differ in at least one of a number of poles or a type of torque for rotating a rotor. The second drive source is configured to drive the wheels in parallel with the motor. The drive controller is configured to set, during switching of the modes, a target driving force of the second drive source to be larger than a target driving force of the second drive source before the switching of the modes.
