ABSTRACT:
In an eco-run control, determination of a stop of an internal combustion engine (1) is reliably and promptly made. An internal combustion engine stop-start control apparatus for executing a control of stopping the internal combustion engine (1) upon satisfaction of a predetermined stop condition, and for executing a control of starting the internal combustion engine (1) upon satisfaction of a predetermined start condition, has: stop request determination means (step S1) for determining that there is a request for stopping the internal combustion engine (1) based on satisfaction of the stop condition; and stop determination means (steps S2, S4) for determining a stop of the internal combustion engine (1) based on a state of a predetermined physical quantity that changes in relation to operation of the internal combustion engine (1), the state occurring within a predetermined determination time (Ten), and for setting the determination time (Ten) shorter if the request for stopping the internal combustion engine (1) is present than if the request is absent.
