Hybrid Vehicle

In the state where a sensor used for controlling a first inverter has an abnormality, when rotation speed Ne of an engine is lower than a predetermined reference value Nref (S), three phase-on control of a first inverter is performed (S). This causes the rotation speed of the engine to be increased with an increase in rotation speed of a driveshaft. Operation control of the engine is started when the rotation speed Ne of the engine reaches or exceeds a threshold value Nst (S to S).
