Abstract
A hybrid vehicle includes: an engine; first and second rotating electric machines; a connection/disconnection mechanism; a power storage device; and a control device. Further, when an acceleration request occurs during EV traveling mode, the control device controls, when determining that a predetermined acceleration smaller than a requested acceleration and corresponding to a vehicle speed cannot be generated by torque output by the second rotating electric machine, the torque output by the second rotating electric machine so as to generate an acceleration less than the predetermined acceleration while controlling the torque by the engine and torque by the first rotating electric machine, and when determining that the predetermined acceleration cannot be generated by the torque output by the second rotating electric machine, controls the torque output by the second rotating electric machine so as to generate the acceleration equal to or greater than the predetermined acceleration.
