Abstract
A control device for a hybrid vehicle that includes an internal combustion engine, a motor, and a clutch provided between the internal combustion engine and the motor includes a first start control unit that starts the internal combustion engine by causing the motor to perform cranking, a second start control unit that starts the internal combustion engine without causing the motor to perform cranking, and a setting unit that sets a threshold for a rotational speed of the internal combustion engine according to a vehicle speed of the hybrid vehicle. When the rotational speed of the internal combustion engine is less than the threshold, the first start control unit starts the internal combustion engine. When the rotational speed of the internal combustion engine is equal to or higher than the threshold, the second start control unit starts the internal combustion engine.
