<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a power output device of a vehicle for improving quietness of the vehicle while maintaining reliability of parts. <P>SOLUTION: The output device comprises a detection unit detecting abnormality in an electric connection path from a first connecting terminal of an electrical current control circuit 102 to a second terminal of the circuit 102 via a battery B1; and a control device 30 controlling the circuit 102 and a motor generator MG1. The control device 30 makes the generator MG1 perform a power generation operation generating negative torque so as to promote stop of an engine 4 and makes the battery B1 recover the generated power if the detection unit has not detected any abnormality when the engine 4 transfers from an operation state to a stop state. If the detection unit detects the abnormality, the control device 30 inhibits the power generation operation of the generator MG1. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT |
