ABSTRACT:
An electronic control unit40calculates a target output torque of an internal combustion engine10based on a manipulation amount of an accelerator pedal60, a vehicle speed, and a state of a transmission gear ratio of an automatic continuously variable transmission30, and calculates a target opening of a throttle valve14based on the calculated target output torque. If the current value of the transmission gear ratio of the automatic continuously variable transmission30is smaller than a predetermined value, the target opening of the throttle valve14calculated based on the target output torque is limited to be less than or equal to a preset upper limit.
