Abstract:
A hybrid vehicle control apparatus for a vehicle having front and rear wheels with at least one of the front and rear wheels being an engine driven wheel driven by an internal combustion engine and at least one of the front and rear wheels being a non-engine driven wheel driven by an electric motor that is mechanically independent from the engine, the hybrid vehicle control apparatus comprising:a total target drive torque setting section configured to set a total target drive torque of the engine driven wheel and the non-engine driven wheel; a target engine torque setting section configured to set a target engine torque, which is a portion of the total target drive torque that should be produced at the engine driven wheel; and a motor command value setting section configured to set a torque command value for the electric motor in a delayed manner with respect to a change in a target drive torque of the electric motor when the target engine torque changes, the torque command value corresponds to a distribution ratio of the total target drive torque that should be produced at the non-engine driven wheel.
