Abstract
A control device causes a motor-generator to stop while a shift lever is set to a neutral position, and changes the rotation speed of an electric oil pump from a first rotation speed to a second rotation speed lower than the first rotation speed if a state of the electric oil pump in a hydraulic pressure control device enters a state where it is not preferable to continue operation at the first rotation speed. Preferably, the control device warns a driver to change the shift lever position from the neutral-position to another position if the vehicle satisfies a prescribed warning condition. Further preferably, the control device sets the vehicle to a running non-permitted state if the shift lever position is not changed from the neutral position to another position after warning.
