Abstract:
A vehicle control device for controlling a vehicle includes a drive source and an automatic transmission connected to the drive source and including a variator. The vehicle control device includes: a first control unit configured to execute a during-travel drive source stop control for stopping the drive source and shifting the automatic transmission in a neutral state if a during-travel drive source stop condition is satisfied; and a second control unit configured to execute a during-travel drive source stop release control for shifting the automatic transmission in a power transmission state via a rotation synchronization control in the automatic transmission set in the neutral state if a during-travel drive source stop release condition is satisfied. The second control unit executes the rotation synchronization control with the variator downshifted from a speed ratio during the during-travel drive source stop control if the during-travel drive source stop release condition accompanied by a downshifting request of the variator is satisfied.

Claim (Index 4):
A vehicle control device for controlling a vehicle with a drive source and an automatic transmission connected to the drive source and including a variator, comprising:\n a first control unit configured to execute a during-travel drive source stop control for stopping the drive source and shifting the automatic transmission in a neutral state if a during-travel drive source stop condition is satisfied; and a second control unit configured to execute a during-travel drive source stop release control for shifting the automatic transmission in a power transmission state via a rotation synchronization control in the automatic transmission set in the neutral state if a during-travel drive source stop release condition is satisfied, wherein the second control unit executes the rotation synchronization control with the variator downshifted from a speed ratio during the during-travel drive source stop control if the during-travel drive source stop release condition accompanied by a downshifting request of the variator is satisfied, and the second control unit sets a target speed ratio of the variator to a Lower side than during the rotation synchronization control after the rotation synchronization control.
