Patent ID: 7846062

Claim:
A control system that adjusts an output of an engine in a vehicle including a transmission that transmits a torque generated by the engine depending on an accelerator operation amount to a drive wheel, the control system comprising: a detector that detects a shift operation of the transmission by a driver; an engine output adjuster that adjusts the output of the engine so as to decrease the torque in a driving state where the torque is transmitted from the engine to the transmission or in a driven state where the torque is transmitted from the transmission to the engine when the shift operation of the transmission is detected by the detector and does not adjust the output when an up-shifting operation of the transmission is detected by the detector in the driven state; and a notifier that provides notification so that the driver can recognize that the output is not adjusted when the output is not adjusted by the engine output adjuster and the torque in the driven state is at least a first value.
