Abstract
A control apparatus applied to a hybrid vehicle is disclosed, by which the output assist by the motor with respect to the engine output can be limited or stopped in the high speed driving mode. The control apparatus comprises a section for stopping the operation of the motor from assisting the engine output when the engine output is assisted by the motor and the speed of the vehicle exceeds a predetermined first threshold value; and a section for starting the regenerating operation of the motor when the speed of the vehicle exceeds a predetermined second threshold value which is larger than the first threshold value.
