Abstract
In a control system for a hybrid electric vehicle equipped with an engine and an electric motor, when it is judged that the vehicle is in a preset state where torque required in the electric motor is zero, storage-rate retention control is carried out by causing the electric motor to generate minute torque having an absolute value smaller than the torque of the electric motor, which is required for a forced charge or discharge.
