Abstract:
1. A hybrid vehicle, comprising: an internal combustion engine; an electric power-mechanical power input output mechanism that is connected to an output shaft of the internal combustion engine and to a drive shaft linked with an axle of said hybrid vehicle and outputs at least part of output power of the internal combustion engine to the drive shaft through input and output of electric power and mechanical power; a motor that is capable of inputting and outputting power; a transmission unit that changes a gear ratio set for conversion of a power output from the motor to the drive shaft and a power input from the drive shaft to the motor; and a driving resistance measurement control module that controls the internal combustion engine, the electric power-mechanical power input output mechanism, the motor, and the transmission unit, in response to a predetermined operation, to set said hybrid vehicle in a driving resistance measurement mode for measurement of a driving resistance of said hybrid vehicle.
