Abstract
In line pressure control apparatus and method for a vehicle, a line pressure controller outputs a line pressure command to reduce an indicated pressure toward a required indicated pressure by which a required pressure can be secured and which is lower than an initial stage indicated pressure from the initial stage indicated pressure preset to be higher than the required pressure, while a state of each of an electrically driven oil pump (sub-O/P) and a mechanical oil pump (M-O/P) enters a first region (a) and outputs the line pressure command to hold the indicated pressure at a time point at which the first region is ended, while the state enters a second region (b), when a hydraulic pressure source is transitioned from the electrically driven oil pump to the mechanical oil pump.
