Abstract:
A control system is installed on a vehicle having an electric motor as a drive power source. The control system includes an electronic control unit configured to switch the vehicle between an automatic driving mode using automatic drive control, and a manual driving mode in which the vehicle is operated by a driver. The electronic control unit is configured to limit the load factor of the electric motor, in the case where the temperature of the electric motor is higher than a first threshold temperature when the vehicle travels in the automatic driving mode, and the case where the temperature of the electric motor is higher than a second threshold temperature when the vehicle travels in the manual driving mode. The second threshold temperature is set to a value higher than the first threshold temperature.
