For a hybrid vehicle where a high-power unit is mounted, a cooling system includes a first cooling system for cooling the high-power unit. The first cooling system includes a main passage for allowing a first coolant to circulate through the main passage; a radiator for performing heat exchange with the first coolant; a cooler for cooling supercharged intake air supplied to an internal combustion engine; a bypass passage connected to the main passage so as to bypass the radiator; and a bypass valve for controlling a flow rate of the first coolant flowing through the bypass passage. The cooler is located downstream of the high-power unit and upstream of the radiator in a direction of flow of the first coolant. The bypass valve is controlled to prevent the first coolant from flowing to the radiator, when the first coolant has a temperature lower than a first predetermined value.
A cooling system for a hybrid vehicle where a high-power unit is mounted, the cooling system comprising:
