DRIVE UNIT

It is intended to prevent a vehicle from moving backward in starting movement on a slope. A drive unit (100) includes a motor (2), a torque converter (3), a brake sensor (81) and a controller (80). The torque converter (3) is a device to which a torque, outputted from the motor (2), is inputted. The brake sensor (81) detects a braking operation amount. The controller (80) executes a first control of controlling the torque outputted from the motor (2) based on the braking operation amount.
