The hybrid vehicle includes a battery configured to store electrical energy, a motor configured to rotate using the electrical energy, a transmission including a first clutch and a second clutch that are connectable to the motor, and a controller configured to control rotation of the motor to cool the transmission when the transmission is determined to be in an overheated state.
