ABSTRACT:
An engine, motors MG1and MG2are controlled to ensure a torque demand Tr* to a ring gear shaft without an operation of the engine while restricting a discharge of a battery within a range of an output limit Wout when a driving power demand Pr* is less than an engine start determination power Pref obtained by subtracting an engine start electric power Wcrk and the like from a base output limit Woutb while the operation of the engine is stopped. When the driving power demand Pr* becomes equal to or more than the engine start determination power Pref while the operation of the engine is stopped, the engine, motors MG1and MG2are controlled to ensure the torque demand Tr* to the ring gear shaft with a start of the engine while restricting the discharge of the battery within the range of the output limit Wout.
