Abstract:
An operator is a momentary operator. An electronic control unit is configured to when the operator does not pass through any one of traveling operation positions while the operator is operated from an initial position to an neutral operation position and then returned to the initial position, and when the operator is continuously held at the neutral operation position for a first predetermined time or longer, change a shift range of an automatic transmission to the neutral range, and when the operator passes through at least one of the traveling operation positions while the operator is operated from the initial position to the neutral operation position and then returned to the initial position, prohibit a change of the shift range to the neutral range even when the operator is continuously held at the neutral operation position for the first predetermined time or longer.
