HYBRID ELECTRIC VEHICLE

A hybrid electric vehicle includes a control device that selectively executes a plurality of traveling modes. The control device can execute a process of acquiring a predicted traveling route, a process of specifying a required traveling energy required for traveling a specific section in an EV traveling mode, a process of setting a target value and at least one threshold value for the remaining battery charge amount, and a process of determining a traveling mode to be executed from among a plurality of traveling modes until the hybrid electric vehicle enters the specific section.
