Claim:
1. A start control apparatus mounted on a vehicle comprising an internal combustion engine and a motor having a rotating shaft that can be rotated in synchronization with an output shaft of the internal combustion engine, said start control apparatus comprising: a crank angle sensor mounted on the output shaft and configured to output a signal in association with rotation of the output shaft; a resolver mounted on the rotating shaft and configured to detect a rotor angle, which is an angle position of the rotating shaft; and a controlling device configured to perform start control associated with the internal combustion engine on the basis of a temporary crank angle, from a start of the internal combustion engine until determination of a crank angle, which is an angle position of the output shaft, when the output shaft is rotated by the motor to start the internal combustion engine, wherein the temporary crank angle is an estimated value calculated by adding a value according to the outputted signal to a stop angle, and the stop angle is an angle based on the rotor angle detected at a previous stop of the internal combustion engine.
