Abstract
A motor control apparatus for a hybrid vehicle in which a diesel engine is used is disclosed by which the compulsory regeneration time period of the hybrid vehicle is reduced to achieve enhancement of the fuel cost. The motor control apparatus for a hybrid vehicle includes a filter for collecting particulate matter in exhaust gas of the diesel engine, compulsory regeneration means for compulsorily regenerating the filter, and battery charging means for converting the output power of the diesel engine into electric power based on a charged state of the battery and charging the battery with the electric power. When the compulsory regeneration is executed, the supply of electric power to the battery by the engine is inhibited.
Claims5
