Abstract

A hybrid vehicle running control apparatus that is mounted in a hybrid vehicle that has a high-voltage battery and a low-voltage battery, and is selectively controlled to drive in a first running mode in which an electric motor to which power is supplied from the high-voltage battery is used as a drive source, and a second running mode in which an engine is used as the drive source, includes a transport state determining portion that determines whether the hybrid vehicle is in transport; and a battery running inhibiting portion that inhibits the hybrid vehicle from running in the first running mode when it is determined by the transport state determining portion that the hybrid vehicle is in transport.
