<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce a difference between an engine torque and a motor torque when the engagement of a clutch device is completed at the start of an internal combustion engine. <P>SOLUTION: A controller 40 controls at least the operations of an internal combustion engine 20 and a clutch device 30. The controller 40 calculates a predicted engaging time, that is, a time from when the engagement of a frictional material 31 in the clutch device 30 with a plate 32 in the clutch device 30 is started until the engagement of the frictional material 31 with the plate 32 is completed. The controller 40 also calculates a predicted torque rise delay time, that is, a time from when the ignition of fuel led to the internal combustion engine 20 is started until the engine torque reaches the motor torque. Based on the predicted engaging time and the predicted torque rise delay time, the controller 40 calculates a target ignition timing. At the target ignition timing, the controller 40 operates an ignition device of the internal combustion engine 20. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
