Abstract
The ECU executes a program including the step of setting a threshold value A to be compared with a stroke amount of an actuator for determining whether gear shifting has completed or not, taking no account of a deflection amount C of the hardware due to the shift load, when the vehicle speed V is higher than a predetermined vehicle speed V(), and the step of setting a threshold value B to be compared with the stroke amount of the actuator for determining whether gear shifting has completed or not, to a value obtained by adding the deflection amount C of the hardware due to the shift load to the threshold value A used when the vehicle speed V is not lower than V(), when the vehicle speed V is lower than the predetermined vehicle speed V().
