A control device for a driving device, the driving device includes a transmission and a hydraulic pressure generating device. The hydraulic pressure generating device includes an oil pump and a first mechanism. The first mechanism is configured to decrease hydraulic pressure of an oil passage connected with the oil pump. The control device includes an ECU. The ECU is configured to control the engine rotational speed to a first rotational speed and maintain vehicle speed by gear shifting, in a case where, while a vehicle is running in a predetermined running state, fuel consumption is smaller when the engine is driven at the first rotational speed, compared to fuel consumption in the predetermined running state, the first rotational speed is a rotational speed at which the hydraulic pressure is decreased, the predetermined miming state being a miming state in which the hydraulic pressure is not decreased.

A control system for a vehicle uses one or more inputs of a velocity request, a brake request, a speed request, travel direction indication, engine speed, and vehicle speed to determine a control strategy for a continuously variable transmission. A target engine speed is selected based upon the inputs, and the engine and continuously variable transmission ratio are controlled to achieve the target engine speed while controlling the vehicle according to the inputs. In some embodiments, the control strategy further selects the target engine speed according to accessory system demands, such as a hoist or lift system.

In one aspect, a method for adjusting torque limits for a work vehicle may include controlling, with a computing device, an operation of an engine of the work vehicle such that a torque output of the engine is maintained at or below a baseline engine torque limit. The method may also include receiving, with the computing device, an input associated with a current hydraulic power requirement of a hydraulic system of the work vehicle, and adjusting, with the computing device, a torque limit for the engine from the baseline engine torque limit to an adjusted engine torque limit based on the current hydraulic power requirement of the hydraulic system. In addition, the method may include controlling, with the computing device, the operation of the engine such that the torque output of the engine is maintained at or below the adjusted engine torque limit.

A parking lock device includes a parking mechanism, a lock state switching member, a selector, a gradient detector, a switching controller, and an engine speed controller. The lock state switching member locks a parking gear when supply of hydraulic pressure is stopped. When hydraulic pressure is supplied, the lock state switching member releases the lock of the parking gear. The selector receives operation to select a shift range. The gradient detector detects a gradient of a road surface. When a parking range is selected, the switching controller stops supplying the hydraulic pressure to the lock state switching member. When another shift range is selected, the switching controller supplies the hydraulic pressure to the lock state switching member. When the parking range is selected and the gradient of the road surface is equal to or larger than a predetermined value, the engine speed controller increases an engine speed.
