A control device for a vehicle is provided with: two drive devices; a first speed reducer that transmits the torque of one drive device to an output shaft; and a second speed reducer that transmits the torque of the other drive device to the output shaft. The control device is provided with a torque control unit that controls, according to a target torque, the torque output by the two drive devices. The torque control unit includes a restriction unit that controls the torque output by the two drive devices when the sign of the target torque is changed from a first sign to a second sign. While outputting torque that reduces the backlash of the first speed reducer or the second speed reducer to one of the drive devices, the restriction unit outputs torque according to the target torque to the other drive device.

A transmission is subject to gear shift management that provides for shifting gears in a controlled manner in order to provide for a simplification of part and reduction in system complexity. In particular, a range synchronizer component can be replaced with a simplified range jaw clutch, without incurring a requirement for an installation of other components such as a motor generator or starter-generator.
