By shifting a lock-up clutch of a torque converter from a released state into an engaged state on condition that a gear ratio of an input shaft of a CVT to an output shaft of the CVT is decreasing (upshift), a lock-up control at the time of an increase in vehicle speed is performed while the gear ratio is being changed in a stepped manner. Thus, it is possible to synchronize a decrease in engine rotational speed due to shifting with a decrease in engine rotational speed due to lock-up engagement. Hence, lock-up engagement may be performed so that the driver does not recognize a decrease in engine rotational speed due to the lock-up engagement and, as a result, it is possible to prevent driver's uncomfortable feeling.
