CONTROL APPARATUS FOR HYBRID ELECTRICALLY-OPERATED VEHICLE

A control apparatus for a hybrid electrically-operated vehicle that includes an engine, a rotating machine, a transmission apparatus and an engine connection/disconnection device which is to be engaged to connect a power transmission between the engine and the transmission apparatus and which is to be released to disconnect the power transmission between the engine and the transmission apparatus. The control apparatus executes a vibration suppression control by using a first vibration model in which the engine connection/disconnection device is engaged and a second vibration model in which the engine connection/disconnection device is released, such that the vibration suppression control is executed also during a switch control for switching between an engine driving mode and a motor driving mode, by using one of the first and second vibration models which is used in execution of the vibration suppression control before start of the execution of the switch control.
