Abstract
An internal combustion engine includes a first bank and a second bank. The first bank includes a continuously variable valve apparatus that continuously changes a valve characteristic of an intake valve. The second bank includes a multi-stage variable valve apparatus that changes the valve characteristic in multiple stages. An engine control apparatus adjusts the intake air amount of the first bank by adjusting the valve characteristic that is changed by the continuously variable valve apparatus, based on the intake air amount of the second bank.
