Abstract:
When a starting point water temperature Twst is equal to or lower than a threshold value Twref1, catalyst warm-up control is executed, and when a cooling water temperature Tw becomes higher than the threshold value Twref1 or an operation time top of an engine becomes equal to or higher than a threshold value topref1, the control of the engine is shifted from the catalyst warm-up control to normal control. When the starting point water temperature Twst is higher than the threshold value Twref1 and is equal to or lower than a threshold value Twref2, PN suppression control is executed, and when the cooling water temperature Tw of the engine becomes higher than the threshold value Twref2 or the operation time top of the engine becomes equal to or higher than a threshold value topref2, the control of the engine is shifted from the PN suppression control to the normal control.
