Abstract
A control system for a hybrid vehicle configured to reduce electricity consumption by a motor in a condition where a maximum output torque of an engine is restricted. A controller is configured to: calculate a current maximum torque of the engine when increasing a speed of the engine to achieve an acceleration demand; determine whether the current maximum torque of the engine is less than an inertia torque required to increase the speed of the engine; and adjust the reaction torque of the first motor to a value less than a predetermined value, if the current maximum torque of the engine is less than the inertia torque required to increase the speed of the engine.
