Abstract
In a vehicle control system of this invention, a CVT ECU does not executes the calculations such as a gear ratio, etc., but simply controls the gear ratio of a CVT on the basis of the target gear ratio and a CVT input torque transmitted from a manager ECU by way of a communication line. Accordingly, when mounting a CVT unit constructed with the CVT and the CVT ECU in a vehicle, the vehicle control does not need to tune the CVT ECU one by one, even though the types and engines of vehicles are varied. Therefore, it is possible to configure the CVT unit independently of the types of vehicles, which achieves standardization or generalization of the CVT unit in terms of both the hardware and the software.
