Abstract: A high acceleration time shift control apparatus and method for a vehicle is provided. The high acceleration time shift control apparatus includes a transmission which achieves plural shift speeds whose gear ratios are different from each other; and a high acceleration time upshifting control device which changes a shift speed of the transmission to a higher speed based on a predetermined determination rotational speed such that an input rotational speed of the transmission substantially reaches a target maximum rotational speed when a request for high acceleration is made by a driver.

Abstract: When it has been determined that control for a predetermined upshift has been started while an accelerator pedal was not being depressed, and that a factor that changes an input torque of an automatic transmission has been generated, an engaging pressure of a predetermined hydraulic frictional engagement device is corrected by a correction amount in accordance with the factor that changes the input torque. As a result, undershooting of an engine speed, as well as shift shock which results from that undershooting, is able to be preferably suppressed.

Abstract: When it has been determined by first determining means that control for a predetermined upshift has been started while an accelerator pedal was not being depressed, and it has been determined by second determining means that a factor that changes an input torque of an automatic transmission has been generated, correction controlling means corrects an engaging pressure of a predetermined hydraulic frictional engagement device by a correction amount in accordance with the factor that changes the input torque. As a result, undershooting of an engine speed, as well as shift shock which results from that undershooting, is able to be preferably suppressed even when a factor that changes the output torque of an engine is generated.
