Abstract

The vehicle control system includes an engine, a battery, a motor generator that generates driving power and generates electric power to charge the battery, a power conversion device that generates driving power to the motor generator and charges the battery, and a control device that controls the engine and the power conversion device. The control device controls the engine and the power conversion device and the remaining capacity of the battery is equal to a target value when the remaining capacity of the battery is equal to or less than the lower threshold. The control device reduces the target value of the remaining value of the battery as compared with a case where temperature of the battery is equal to or more than a threshold value when the temperature of the battery is less than the threshold value.
