The control apparatus for a vehicle having a prime mover is applied to a vehicle having an air conditioning mechanism which performs the air conditioning in the vehicle interior by using the cooling water of the internal combustion engine. The engine stop permitting means permits stopping the internal combustion engine based on the requested load of the internal combustion engine, when the cooling water temperature becomes equal to or higher than the engine stop permitting water temperature. The engine activating means activates the internal combustion engine when the cooling water temperature becomes lower than the engine activation requesting water temperature, which is set to be lower than the engine stop permitting water temperature. The correcting means corrects the engine stop permitting water temperature to be higher in the case that the vehicle speed is high, than in the case that the vehicle speed is low. By this, it is possible to appropriately reduce the activation frequency of the internal combustion engine against the driver's intention, at the time of non-accelerating driving or the moderate acceleration. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of the wrong feeling or uncomfortable feeling of the driver due to the activation of the internal combustion engine. |
