Abstract:
In a vehicle having a continuously variable transmission, a controller selectively performs a first control mode in which a transmission ratio is controlled in a stepless manner, and a second control mode in which the transmission ratio is controlled in a stepwise manner to perform an upshift after a vehicle speed has increased. When the second control mode is selected in response to a driver's acceleration request, the controller continuously downshifts the transmission ratio until the upshift is performed.

Claim (Index 4):
The automatic transmission control method as recited in  claim 1 , wherein\n when the continuously downshifting is performed until the upshift occurs while in the second control mode, the downshifting is performed such that a transmission ratio change amount becomes constant.
