Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A hybrid vehicle in which at least two shift ranges can be selected for a single running direction includes an engine, a motor generator, an EHC raising the temperature of a catalyst for cleaning up an exhaust gas from the engine, and an ECU. While the vehicle is running, if the engine is stopped and, of the two shift ranges, a shift range where larger decelerating force is produced by regenerative braking of the motor generator has been selected, the ECU causes the EHC to raise the temperature of the catalyst using electric power generated by the motor generator.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A vehicle in which at least two shift ranges can be selected for a single running direction, comprising: an internal combustion engine; a rotating electric machine coupled to a driving wheel of said vehicle, the rotating electric machine producing driving force for causing said vehicle to run, and being capable of generating electric power by rotary force of said driving wheel; a warming-up device configured to raise a temperature of a catalyst for…
