A control apparatus for a drive system of a vehicle, provided with a transmission, and an electric motor operable to change an operating speed of the engine during the process of shifting of the transmission. The control apparatus controls a discrete change of the operating speed of said engine, with at least one of torques assigned to be respectively generated by said engine and said electric motor in a discrete shifting operation of the transmission mechanism which is performed in response to an operation of an operator of the vehicle and in which the discrete change of the operating speed of said engine takes place, includes a torque assignment determining portion configured to determine a percentage of the torque assigned to said engine in said discrete shifting operation such that the percentage increases with an increase of an amount of change of the operating speed of the engine.
