A control apparatus for an automatic transmission detects, for example, octane values in order to determine the kind of gasoline used in the engine. The shift patterns of the automatic transmission are altered in accordance with the kind of fuel detected. This permits optimum running in accordance with the kind of fuel used. When a fuel of higher octane value is used, running can be carried out with priority on high output, while when a fuel lower in octane value is used, running can be carried out with an emphasis on the saving of gasoline.
