Abstract: A display control device for a vehicle includes at least one electronic control unit configured to: cause a display device to display a host vehicle's behind-the-vehicle image, the host vehicle's behind-the-vehicle image being an image of an area behind a host vehicle, the host vehicle's behind-the-vehicle image being captured by a sensor of the host vehicle; detect a rearward vehicle, the rearward vehicle being another vehicle existing behind the host vehicle; cause the display device to display the host vehicle's behind-the-vehicle image with a first contrast ratio when the rearward vehicle is not detected; and cause the display device to display the host vehicle's behind-the-vehicle image with a second contrast ratio when the rearward vehicle is detected, the second contrast ratio being higher than the first contrast ratio.
Abstract: A control system for a hybrid vehicle that is capable of absorbing an inertial force which is generated during shifting of a stepped transmission. During shift control of the stepped transmission by a shift control device and before the shift control is completed, a during-shift drive control element controls a driving force which is output from a second drive unit such that a total driving force which is output from first and second drive units to the drive wheels equals a driver request output. Further, the during-shift drive control elements executes control so as to reduce a difference between the total driving force output to a drive wheel and the driver request output based on a change in a transmission force of the stepped transmission caused by a switch-over between a first brake and a second brake.
