Abstract:
An electronic control unit controls a motor so that a torque applied to an input shaft does not exceed an upper limit torque. The electronic control unit sets so as to restrict the upper limit torque from a first torque to a second torque smaller than the first torque, and then return the upper limit torque to the first torque more gradually when a first condition that a driver is assumed to have felt a decrease in driving force output to driving wheels is met before the upper limit torque is returned than when the first condition is not met.

Claim (Index 8):
The automobile according to  claim 1 , wherein\n the electronic control unit is configured to control the motor so as to hold the upper limit torque when following conditions i) and ii) are both satisfied, i) the first condition is met before the upper limit torque is returned to the first torque, and ii) a temporary required torque for the input shaft based on an accelerator operation amount is not larger than the upper limit torque, and the electronic control unit controls the motor so as to increase the upper limit torque when following conditions i) and iii) are both satisfied, i) the first condition is met before the upper limit torque is returned to the first torque, and iii) the temporary required torque is larger than the upper limit torque.
