Abstract
In an accelerator-off state, a torque command Tm* of a first motor is set such that an engine, that is in a state in which fuel injection is stopped, is subjected to motoring by the first motor. Subsequently, torque commands Tm* and Tm* of a second motor and a third motor are set such that a torque of the second motor becomes equal to or less than a threshold value—Tref or equal to or more than a threshold value Tref and a hybrid vehicle runs with a required torque Td*. Then, the first motor, the second motor, and the third motor are controlled by using the torque commands Tm*, Tm*, and Tm
