Shift control apparatus of continuously variable transmission

摘要

A shift control apparatus outputs a command transmission ratio to a continuously variable transmission (CVT) to control a real transmission ratio of the CVT. The shift control apparatus comprises a shift mode determining section determines whether an actually selected shift mode is an automatic upshift or a power-down upshift (foot-release upshift), on the basis of the result of a previously selected shift mode, a difference between a final objective transmission ratio and a transient objective transmission ratio and a rate of change in the transmission ratio per time. The dynamic characteristic selecting section determines the dynamic characteristic according to the determined shift mode.
