When a first type gear shift line is used as a gear shift line to change the gear ratio, and a predetermined condition including a condition that a state of charge of the power storage device is equal to or lower than a first ratio is satisfied, the control device changes the gear shift line to a second type gear shift line that recommends a lower speed gear ratio than the first type gear shift line.

A transmission (2) of a motor vehicle includes a first sub-transmission (5) including a first input shaft (7) and a countershaft (11) coupled to the first input shaft (7) via a constant ratio (ic). The transmission (2) further includes a second sub-transmission (6) including a second input shaft (8), the second sub-transmission (6) being a planetary transmission (PG) with a sun gear (24), a ring gear (22), and a carrier (23).
