Abstract
An engine may include a plurality of cylinders generating driving torque by burning fuel; a first intake valve disposed in a first intake line in which intake air supplied to the cylinders flows; a second intake valve disposed in a second intake line in which intake air supplied to the cylinders flows; a first electric supercharger disposed in the first intake line; a second electric supercharger disposed in the second intake line; a bypass valve disposed in a bypass line connecting the first intake line and the second intake line; and a controller for controlling the first electric supercharger and the second electric supercharger to be operated in a single mode, a serial mode, or a parallel mode based on an operating region of the engine determined by driving information.
