VEHICLE CONTROL APPARATUS

摘要

According to a vehicle control apparatus of the invention, at a point in time when a driving mode switching part switches driving modes from any driving mode to another driving mode, a reference energy consumption amount calculation part multiplies a reference energy consumption amount by a driving mode switching coefficient which corresponds to the switching of the driving modes, whereby a reference energy consumption amount is compressed or expanded. An energy consumption rate calculation part calculates an energy consumption rate based on a reference mileage and the reference energy consumption amount.

主权项

1. A vehicle control apparatus for a vehicle which is driven to run by energy supplied from at least one energy source, comprising:
a mileage obtaining part which obtains a mileage of the vehicle; a reference mileage calculation part which calculates a reference mileage by adding up the mileage; an energy consumption rate obtaining part which obtains an energy consumption amount of the vehicle; a reference energy consumption amount calculation part which calculates a reference energy consumption amount by adding up the energy consumption amount; an energy consumption rate calculation part which calculates an energy consumption rate based on the reference mileage and the reference energy consumption amount; and a driving mode switching part which switches a plurality of driving modes which include at least a first driving mode, a second driving mode whose system output upper limit value is set lower than that of the first driving mode, and a third driving mode whose system output upper limit value is set lower than that of the second driving mode, wherein the reference energy consumption amount calculation part compresses or expands the reference energy consumption amount by multiplying the reference energy consumption amount by a driving mode changing coefficient at a point in time when the driving mode switching part switches the plurality of driving modes from any one driving mode to another driving mode.
