A hybrid vehicle improves drivability during switching operation between an engine cruise mode and a motor cruise mode. The hybrid vehicle comprises an engine and a motor capable of generating electrical power as power sources, an output shaft to which at least one of the driving powers of the engine and the motor is transmitted for driving the vehicle in the engine cruise mode in which the vehicle is driven by the engine, or in the motor cruise mode in which the vehicle is driven by the motor, a clutch section which is provided between the engine and motor and the output shaft, and which is adapted to selectively disconnect the driving powers of the engine and the motor, and a control section which is adapted to control the clutch section, when the driving mode of the vehicle is switched between the engine cruise mode and the motor cruise mode alternately, so that the engagement degree of the clutch section is once decreased at switching, and then the decreased engagement degree of the clutch section is gradually increased and recovered.
