Abstract:
A control system for a vehicle, comprising:a generating device, a battery, a motor electrically connected to the generating device and the battery, which drives the vehicle, and a controller which functions to; determine a running condition of the vehicle, compute a target motor power, which is a target value of the power of the motor, based on the vehicle running condition, compute an available battery output from the battery to the motor based on the target motor power, the available battery output being an outputtable power by the battery which varies according to a voltage applied to the motor, compute a target generated power, which is a target value of the power generated by the generating device, based on the available battery output and the target motor power, and control the generating device based on the target generated power.
