An apparatus for controlling an automatic transmission of an automobile and a control method thereof. When a feedback control is executed by the automatic transmission while the speed is being changed, the control operation may often lose stability. This is due to a large deviation between a target value and a practical value at the start of the feedback control operation being caused by a change in the opening degree of the throttle and a change in the oil temperature in the automatic transmission. To solve such a technical problem, the invention employs a control apparatus which detects that the automatic transmission is changing the speed, operates the output shaft torque of the automatic transmission, recognizes a point of inflection of the output shaft torque while the speed is being changed, sets a target output shaft torque of the automatic transmission, and sets an initial target value at a moment of said point of inflection. |
