VEHICLE CONTROL DEVICE AND CONTROL METHOD

A vehicle equipped with a power source system including a master power source and a slave power source connected in parallel to a motor for running is provided. In a case where distribution of discharge power of the master power source and discharge power of the slave power source cannot be controlled, when a voltage difference between the respective power sources is greater than or equal to a certain value, an ECU sets a limit value on electric power supplied from the power source system to the motor at allowable discharge power of one of the power sources having a higher voltage, and limits a motor torque such that electric power discharged from the power source system to the motor does not exceed the set limit value.
