In a vehicle 1 in which front wheels 4 are driven by transferring power to the front wheels 4 from an engine 3 and a front motor 2 via a transaxle 7, and rear wheels 6 are driven by a rear motor 5, thus causing the vehicle 1 to run, the vehicle 1 includes a hybrid control unit 18 that calculates a required output for running the vehicle, sets an output ratio between a front wheels 4 side and a rear wheels 6 side, and controls outputs of the engine 3, the front motor 2, and the rear motor 5 based on the required output of the vehicle 1 and the output ratio, a T/A oil temperature sensor 30 that acquires an oil temperature in the transaxle 7, and a T/A protection control unit 50 that performs transaxle protection control in a case in which the oil temperature T in the transaxle 7 becomes a first threshold T1 or more, the transaxle protection control reducing a proportion of the output on a front wheels 4 side compared with the proportion of the output on the front wheels 4 side of a case in which the oil temperature T in the transaxle 7 is less than the first threshold T1.
