CONTROLLER, CONTROL METHOD AND CONTROL SYSTEM FOR A VEHICLE

摘要

A vehicle includes an engine (2), a rotary machine (MG2), at least one driving wheel (25), a transmission member (11) arranged between the engine (2) and the driving wheel (25), a clutch (CL1) having a first engagement element (32) connected to the transmission member (11) and a second engagement element (33) connected to the rotary machine (MG2), the clutch (CL1) being configured to engage or disengage the first engagement element (32) and the second engagement element (33), and a controller. The controller includes an electronic control unit (40) configured to perform an idling mode after the clutch (CL1) is disengaged while the vehicle is traveling. The idling mode is a mode in which the rotary machine (MG2) rotates in a state where the rotation speed of the second engagement (33) element is lower than the rotation speed of the first engagement element (32).
