VEHICLE, CONTROL METHOD, AND PROGRAM

摘要

The disclosed vehicle smoothly generates the torque requested by the driver. An elapsed time measurement unit (31) measures the time elapsed since the vehicle has started moving in an EV mode, in which travel or starting is performed only with the drive force of an electric motor. A torque limit value deciding unit (33) decides a torque limit value of the electric motor by means of the time elapsed since starting and the acceleration opening amount originating from the driver's instructions. An electric motor torque control unit (34) controls the electric motor so as to limit the torque of the electric motor to or below the limit value. The disclosed control method can be used in hybrid vehicles.
