PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent a fuel consumption from being deteriorated by air- conditioning a cabin. SOLUTION: When a vehicle is stopped (Step 102), a target air blow temperature, post-evaporator temperature, and a specified preset temperature are compared with each other (Steps 110, 112, and 118). By this, when a cooling capacity is judged to be secured, the start of an engine is not requested (Step 122) and, when the cooling capacity is not secured, the start of the engine is requested (Step 116). Also, after the request for start of the engine is performed, the engine 12 is not stopped even if the cooling capacity can be secured (Steps 114, 120). Thus, uncomfortable feeling due to deterioration of fuel consumption and repeated start and stop of engine can be prevented from occurring. |
