Abstract:
A driving control apparatus and method for a hybrid vehicle are provided. The apparatus includes a vehicle speed calculator that is configured to detect a driving speed of the vehicle and output information regarding the detected driving speed. An inclination sensor is configured to detect an inclination of a road on which the vehicle is being driven and output information regarding the detected inclination. In addition, a mode shift controller is configured to determine a driving load of the vehicle based on the driving speed and the inclination and execute the driving mode of the vehicle based on a magnitude of the driving load.
