Abstract

An electronic control unit included in a hybrid vehicle is configured to switch between first limp home travel control and second limp home travel control based on a first temperature difference, a second temperature difference, and a state of charge when abnormality occurs to a cooler. The first temperature difference is a value that is obtained by subtracting an element temperature of a first inverter from a first load rate limit temperature at which load rate limitation is applied to a first motor. The second temperature difference is a value that is obtained by subtracting an element temperature of a second inverter from a second load rate limit temperature at which the load rate limitation is applied to a second motor.
