<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a vehicle control apparatus capable of suppressing fluctuation in driving force upon starting of an engine. <P>SOLUTION: A vehicle control apparatus includes: an engine; a starter; a rotating electric machine; a differential mechanism connected with the engine, the rotating electric machine, and driving wheels; and a disconnect/connect mechanism. The disconnect/connect mechanism regulates rotation of a rotation element, corresponding to the engine, in the differential mechanism with one actuator, and can switch between a first state where the engine is disconnected, a second state where the rotation of the rotation element is allowed and the engine is connected, and a neutral state where the rotation of the rotation element is allowed and the engine is disconnected from the rotation element. When the engine is started during vehicle running (S4-Y), the following control is implemented: start control (S6) for starting the engine with the starter under the first state; rotation control (S7) for raising the rotational speed of the started engine to a predetermined rotational speed lower than a target rotational speed; and engagement control (S10) for synchronizing the rotational speed of the rotation element with the engine rotational speed of the predetermined rotational speed under a neutral state (S8, S9) and switching to a second state. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
