Abstract: A control apparatus for a hybrid electrically-operated vehicle that includes an engine, a rotating machine, a transmission apparatus and an engine connection/disconnection device which is to be engaged to connect a power transmission between the engine and the transmission apparatus and which is to be released to disconnect the power transmission between the engine and the transmission apparatus. The control apparatus executes a vibration suppression control by using a first vibration model in which the engine connection/disconnection device is engaged and a second vibration model in which the engine connection/disconnection device is released, such that the vibration suppression control is executed also during a switch control for switching between an engine driving mode and a motor driving mode, by using one of the first and second vibration models which is used in execution of the vibration suppression control before start of the execution of the switch control.

Abstract: The controller is installed in the vehicle together with a motor for driving, an air conditioning unit for air conditioning the passenger compartment, auxiliary equipment, and a battery that supplies power to the motor, air conditioning unit, and auxiliary equipment. The controller is programmed to calculate the driving electricity cost based on the battery energy consumption integrated value, the integrated distance traveled, the air conditioning energy consumption integrated value, the auxiliary equipment energy consumption integrated value, and the positional energy variation of the vehicle during the trip, at the end of the trip. And then the controller is programmed to learn the driving learning electricity cost using the driving electricity cost, when the driving electricity cost is less than the threshold value.

Abstract: The controller is installed in the vehicle along with the motor for driving, the auxiliary equipment, and the battery that supplies power to the motor and the auxiliary equipment. After the vehicle's system starts up, the controller is programmed to (A) calculate the power consumption of the auxiliary equipment using the power output from the battery; (B) estimate the auxiliary equipment electricity cost using the power consumption of the auxiliary equipment, the estimated driving time, and the estimated driving distance; and (C) predict the driving electricity cost for the estimated driving distance using the auxiliary electricity cost and the driving learning electricity cost from the learning results.

Abstract: A control apparatus for an electrically-operated vehicle that includes an electric motor serving as one of at least one drive power source. The control apparatus includes a vibration-suppression control portion configured to execute a vibration suppression control for causing the electric motor to output a vibration suppression torque by which vibration of the electrically-operated vehicle is to be suppressed. The vibration-suppression control portion is configured to determine whether the electrically-operated vehicle is in a towing state in which the electrically-operated vehicle runs while towing a towed vehicle, or not, and is configured to make a vibration suppression capacity of the vibration suppression control higher when determining that the electrically-operated vehicle is in the towing state, than when determining that the electrically-operated vehicle is not in the towing state.

Abstract: A control device for a vehicle is configured to control a vehicle including an electric motor driven by electric power from a battery and an air conditioning device operated by the electric power from the battery. The control device includes a processor. The processor is configured, when the vehicle is not traveling, to execute a calculation process of calculating a predicted electricity consumption rate of the vehicle in future travel. In the calculation process, the processor is configured to correct a basic value of the predicted electricity consumption rate based on past air conditioning operation information of at least one of the vehicle and one or more other vehicles.

Abstract: A control device executes, when a jump-down shifting is executed, shifting control in which, after engaging elements establishing a pre-shifting gear position are released, an intermediate gear position that is a gear position between the pre-shifting gear position and a post-shifting gear position is established, and after the intermediate gear position is established, the post-shifting gear position is established. When an engaging element able to reduce a rotation speed difference between two rotating bodies connected by engaging elements establishing the intermediate gear position is regarded as a speed difference reducing element, the control device executes a pre-engaging process for generating a torque capacity in the speed difference reducing element while the shifting control is being executed and before establishing the intermediate gear position.
