Abstract

The control device for a hybrid vehicle includes: a mechanical power source; an electric motor to be used when the mechanical power source is started; a first clutch arranged between the mechanical power source and a first transmission mechanism including a plurality of gear shift stages; a second clutch arranged between the mechanical power source and a second transmission mechanism including a plurality of gear shift stages; an electrical power source coupled to an input shaft of the first transmission mechanism; and a control unit for controlling a torque of at least one of the second clutch or the electric motor so as to compensate a braking force decreased upon a gear shift in the electrical power source when a gear shift request for shifting the gear shift stage of the first transmission mechanism is made during a regeneration travel of the electrical power source.
