Abstract
A hybrid electric vehicle includes a control device that performs travel control and battery control. The battery control includes: first discharge control that sets a lower limit voltage of the battery to a first lower limit value when the battery is not in a warm-up state of the catalyst device, and sets battery dischargeable power to a first upper limit value; and second discharge control that sets a lower limit voltage of the battery to a second lower limit value that is smaller than the first lower limit value when the battery is in a warm-up state of the catalyst device, and sets the battery dischargeable power to a second upper limit value that is larger than the first upper limit value. The travel control includes transient control for causing the battery to output power that is a sum of the battery dischargeable power and a temporary increase.
