Abstract
A filter temperature rising control is performed to set a target power of the engine within a range larger than a traveling power needed to travel and control an engine and a motor to travel based on the traveling power with output of the target power from the engine and power generation by the motor, when temperature rise of the filter is requested. The target power is set based on at least one of traveling power and engine temperature, when the filter temperature rising control is performed.
Claims5
A hybrid vehicle comprising:
- an engine in which a filter for removing particulate matter is attached to an exhaust system;
- a motor connected to an output shaft of the engine;
- a power storage device that exchanges an electric power with the motor;
- and
- a control device that performs filter temperature rising control that sets a target power of the engine within a range larger than a traveling power needed to travel and controls the engine and the motor to travel based on the traveling power with output of the target power from the engine and power generation by the motor, when temperature rise of the filter is requested, wherein
- the control device is configured to set the target power based on at least one of a temperature of the engine and the traveling power, when the filter temperature rising control is performed.
