A hybrid vehicle includes an engine (10), a first motor generator (MG1), a second motor generator (MG2), a transmission unit (power transmission unit) (40), a differential unit (50), a clutch (CS) and a mechanical oil pump (501). The hybrid vehicle is able to switch between series-parallel mode in which power of the engine is transmitted via the transmission unit and the differential unit and series mode in which power of the engine is transmitted via the clutch. The differential unit (50) is a planetary gear mechanism including a sun gear (S2) connected to the first motor generator (MG1), a ring gear (R2) connected to the second motor generator (MG2), and a carrier (CA2) connected to a ring gear (R1) that is an output element of the transmission unit (40). The mechanical oil pump (501) is driven by power that is transmitted from the carrier (CA2) of the differential unit.

An electronic control unit sets a drivability target engine speed, sets upper limit engine power on the basis of the drivability target engine speed, and sets upper limit drive power by dividing the upper limit engine power by a rotational speed of a driveshaft. Then, the electronic control unit compares accelerator requested drive power with the upper limit drive power, sets target engine power such that lower one of the accelerator requested drive power and the upper limit drive power is output to the driveshaft, and controls an engine, a first motor, and a second motor such that the target engine power is output from the engine. In this way, a driver can receive further favorable drive feeling.

A hybrid system includes a transmission control module, a power source, a transmission, and a drive train. The transmission control module partially operates the hybrid system and receives operating information from various components of the system, calculates power losses in the drive train, and calculates the driving torque needed to reach a target power profile determined from a driver's input.

A work implement requirement determination unit of a work vehicle determines a work implement required power based on the operation amount of a work implement operating member and the work implement pump pressure. A transmission requirement determination unit determines a transmission required power based on the vehicle speed and the operation amount of the accelerator operating member. When the sum of the work implement required power and the transmission required power is greater than a first distributable power that a predetermined preferential distribution power subtracted from a load upper limit power of the engine leaves, a distribution ratio determination unit allocates the smaller of a transmission compensation power and the transmission required power to a power transmission device and distributes the remainder of the first distributable power to the work implement pump and to a power transmission device.

A control apparatus for a vehicle is be applied to an electric vehicle. The control apparatus includes one or more processors and one or more memories communicably coupled to the one or more processors. The one or more processors are configured to: control a rotational speed of a drive motor of the electric vehicle to cause a frequency of a motor noise to be generated from the drive motor to be less than a predetermined value, when a vehicle speed of the electric vehicle is in a predetermined low vehicle speed region; and control the rotational speed of the drive motor to cause an electric power efficiency of the drive motor to be equal to or higher than a predetermined efficiency, when the vehicle speed of the electric vehicle is in a predetermined high vehicle speed region.
