A control system is provided in a vehicle including an internal combustion engine, a second MG, and a first MG. The control system starts the engine when required vehicle output becomes equal to or larger than a predetermined start threshold value, and stops the engine when the required vehicle output becomes equal to or smaller than a predetermined stop threshold value. The control system controls the engine so that output power equal to or larger than a predetermined output lower-limit value is generated, during a period from the time when the required vehicle output becomes equal to or larger than the predetermined start threshold value to the time when the required vehicle output becomes equal to or lower than the predetermined stop threshold value. The predetermined output lower-limit value is set to the predetermined start threshold value used when the required vehicle output becomes equal to or larger than the predetermined start threshold value. |
