Abstract
A transmission controller determines that a select operation has been performed from a reverse range to a drive range if a time during which a range other than the drive range has been selected is longer than a predetermined time threshold value and an input rotation speed of a transmission is lower than a predetermined rotation speed threshold value and determines that the select operation has been performed from a parking range or a neutral range to the drive range if the time during which the range other than the drive range has been selected is shorter than the time threshold value or the input rotation speed is higher than the rotation speed threshold value when the select operation has been performed from the range other than the drive range to the drive range during vehicle stop.
