Abstract:
When an EV cancellation switch is turned on while a control mode is a CD mode and a traveling mode is an EV traveling mode, when a catalyst temperature is lower than a threshold and when a vehicle speed is lower than a threshold, a controller executes control processing including a step of executing first VVT control, a step of, when the catalyst temperature is higher than or equal to the threshold or when the vehicle speed is higher than or equal to the threshold, executing second VVT control and a step of switching the control mode into a CS mode.
