Abstract

A vehicle controlling system starts an engine by a starting device based on a vehicle speed, and changes a predetermined vehicle speed, which is a vehicle speed when the engine is started, in response to a state of an electric storage device, when an execution of inertial running in which the engine is stopped to allow the vehicle to run with inertia. Power consumed by a power steering device is changed in response to a vehicle speed. The predetermined vehicle speed is a lower limit vehicle speed in a vehicle speed range in which the electric storage device can output power consumed by the starting device when the engine is started and power consumed by the power steering device at the same time, or a vehicle speed close to the lower limit vehicle speed in the vehicle speed range.
