Abstract
An engine control device () for a vehicle has a torque control mechanism () for regulating the engine output torque. The torque control mechanism () includes at least one of a throttle valve () and a fuel injector (). The engine control device further has a sensor () for detecting the shift lever position and a controller. The controller is configured to detect a shift in the shift lever position from the stationary range position (N or P range) to the running range position (D or R range) based on the shift lever position; and transmit a command signal to the torque control mechanism () when a first predetermined period elapses after the detection of the shift in the shift lever position, the command signal increasing the engine output torque by a predetermined correction gain ΔTe from a first output torque Teat the detection of the shift lever position to a second output torque Te
