Abstract

Since there are provided an inertia phase final period decision unit which decides whether or not the final period of the inertia phase of a speed change is currently occurring, a return control unit which, taking an affirmative result of this decision as a starting condition, performs return control in order to return from the torque down control by gradually decreasing the amount of decrease of output torque, a speed change progression decision unit which, during this return control from the torque down control, decides whether or not the speed change is progressing, and a resumption control unit which resumes the torque down control if the result of this decision is negative, accordingly, during the return control from the torque down control, by resuming the torque down control when there is no progression with the speed change.
