TRAVELLING CONTROL DEVICE FOR HYBRID VEHICLE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To achieve fuel consumption improvement by rapidly switching a travelling mode from an engine travelling mode to a motor travelling mode when a narrow road is detected in front of an own vehicle.SOLUTION: A travelling mode is switched to a motor travelling mode with only a motor generator 13 as a driving source (S7) when an actual passing width D on an own vehicle passing road is derived based on an image photographed by a camera 4 loaded on a vehicle (S3) and this actual passing width D is narrower than a predetermined narrow road determination reference width Do (D≤Do).
