Control device for hybrid vehicle and control method of the same

Abstract

A control device for hybrid vehicle is configured to transmit a torque generated by an engine and a motor to a power transmission member according to a driving power request from a driver. The control device for hybrid vehicle includes motor control means and transmission capacity control means. The motor control means is configured to control an output from the motor according to the driving power request. The transmission capacity control means is configured to control a transmission capacity of the power transmission member. The transmission capacity control means is configured to increase the transmission capacity in consideration of a variation of the output from the motor when the output from the motor is increased based on the driving power request. The motor control means is configured to increase the output from the motor after the transmission capacity is increased in consideration of the variation of the output from the motor when the output from the motor is increased based on the driving power request.
