A control apparatus for a vehicular drive system, including an engine speed limiting device configured to limit operating speed of engine to an upper limit determined according to speed ratio of automatic transmission portion, so as to prevent a rise of operating speed of first electric motor into excessive rise range, so that the excessive rise of the first electric motor speed due to a shifting action of the automatic transmission portion is prevented to improve the durability of the first electric motor. For example, the speed of the engine is limited to the upper limit when the automatic transmission portion is shifted to a failure gear position established as a result of a failure of the automatic transmission portion to perform a shifting action following a shifting boundary line map, so that the vehicle can be driven upon the failure of the automatic transmission portion, while preventing an excessive rise of the first electric motor speed. |
