Abstract
A shift control device includes a kick-down control unit that, in the case where the accelerator is depressed to a certain level or beyond, executes a first kick-down mode, in which a gear ratio of the continuously variable transmission is changed to a low side to increase the engine speed. In the case where, during execution of the first kick-down mode, a switchover operation is accepted to switch the output properties such that output of the engine is increased, the kick-down control unit again determines whether or not to start the first kick-down control again.
