CONTROL DEVICE OF AUTOMOBILE SYSTEM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve fuel economy while fitting into a feeling of a driver without damaging driveability in controlling a speed of an automobile of a hybrid vehicle on the basis of road information.

SOLUTION: This control device of the automobile system comprises: an internal combustion engine 12; a motor/generator 15 for performing regenerative braking; a means 1 for detecting the road information around one's own vehicle; and a vehicle speed control means 5 for determining a target speed on the basis of the detected road information and controlling the speed of the vehicle. The vehicle speed control means 5 is provided with a normal mode 6 for controlling the speed of the vehicle on the basis of control characteristics suiting a driver's taste, and an economy mode 7 for controlling the speed of the vehicle so as to effectively recover regenerative energy by the motor/generator depending on a charged state of a battery. The normal mode 6 and economy mode 7 are switched by manual operation of the driver.
