An internal combustion engine, in which intake air flows through an intake passage into a combustion chamber and exhaust gas resulting from the combustion in the combustion chamber flows through an exhaust passage, includes an exhaust gas purifier provided in the exhaust passage and having an oxidation catalyst, an LPL-EGR passage connecting between the intake passage and the exhaust passage at a position downstream of the exhaust gas purifier as seen in exhaust gas flow direction, a first estimating device for estimating exhaust gas composition at a position upstream of the exhaust gas purifier, a second estimating device for estimating exhaust gas composition at a position downstream of the exhaust gas purifier, a cylinder temperature adjusting device for adjusting temperature in the combustion chamber, and a controller for controlling the cylinder temperature adjusting device based on the difference in the exhaust gas composition between the first and second estimating devices. |
