Methods and systems are provided for a vehicle adapted to be operated based on fuel combustion or electric power. In one example, an accessory train of the vehicle, including an air conditioning pump and a power steering pump, may be operated according to a first mode or according to a second mode based on a power system of the vehicle. When in the second mode, the vehicle may be instructed to coordinate operation of the air conditioning pump and the power steering pump.

A common-mode choke coil includes a loop-shaped core, a cover made of a conductor covering at least part of the core, a first winding wound around an outer surface of the cover, and a second winding wound around the outer surface of the cover. The cover includes a first region around which the first winding is wound, a second region around which the second winding is wound, and two connection regions that connect the first region and the second region to each other in a circumferential direction. The cover has first and second slits in an inner circumferential surface. The first slit extends such that the first region is non-continuous with respect to a winding direction of the first winding. The second slit extends such that the second region is non-continuous with respect to a winding direction of the second winding.

When an A/C switch is ON and a predetermined dehumidification condition is met, an ECU determines whether or not HV travel is selected. When the HV travel is selected, the ECU controls an air conditioning facility so that a heat pump cycle performs a cooling operation (dehumidification) and hot-water heating is used for the heating capability. When the EV travel is selected, the ECU controls the air conditioning facility so that the heat pump cycle performs dehumidification heating.
