Abstract
A control system for an engine is provided, which includes an accelerator opening acquiring module for acquiring an accelerator opening, a target acceleration setting module for setting a target acceleration of a vehicle based on the acquired accelerator opening, and an engine control module for adjusting an engine torque to achieve the set target acceleration. By utilizing first to third ranges defined for the accelerator opening and first to third acceleration characteristic maps, the target acceleration setting module selects one of the first to third acceleration characteristic maps according to a range under which the acquired accelerator opening falls among the first to third ranges, and the target acceleration setting module sets the target acceleration corresponding to the acquired accelerator opening based on the selected map.
