Abstract
A method for controlling a hybrid vehicle is provided. The method includes setting a driving path of the vehicle based on an input destination and current position and predicting a future speed of the vehicle using information regarding the driving path, environmental information, and driving pattern information of a driver. An optimum power distribution map is derived including an optimum SOC trajectory and a power distribution ratio of the engine and the motor using the predicted future speed. Additionally, engine power and motor power is distributed using the optimum SOC trajectory and a power distribution ratio of the engine and the motor.
