Abstract
A hybrid vehicle includes an electric motor, a power storage device, an engine, and a controller. The controller executes switching control for switching control modes. The controller adds, to a first traveling distance, a traveling distance that is obtained when a state in which the engine is not operating and a power storage amount of the power storage device is higher than a threshold continues, and adds, to a second traveling distance, a traveling distance that is obtained when a state in which the engine is not operating and a charge depleting mode is selected continues.
