Abstract
A control apparatus of a hybrid vehicle provided with an engine, a motor, an automatic transmission performing a shift by engaging/disengaging a plurality of engagement elements, a first clutch arranged between the engine and the motor for transmitting/cutting a driving force between the engine and the motor and a second clutch arranged between the motor and driving wheels for transmitting/cutting a driving force from the motor to the driving wheels, has a slip control section that controls the second clutch to a slip state during the shift of the automatic transmission. In a case of a successive shift in which a current shift and a succeeding shift are successively performed, the slip control section gradually increases an engagement pressure of the second clutch when changing the slip state of the second clutch to a fully engaged state after the current shift is completed and before the succeeding shift is completed.
