  • Publication number: 20140107907
    Abstract: A vehicle is equipped with an auxiliary that is driven by the output of an internal combustion engine and which is capable of obtaining drive force by transmitting the output of the internal combustion engine to driving wheels. If an air conditioning compressor is being driven during engine idling of the internal combustion engine, an electronic control apparatus implements output-increase control for increasing the output of the internal combustion engine in comparison to when the air conditioning compressor is not being driven. If the force applied to the accelerator pedal (Pac) is equal to or more than a prescribed value (Pth), output-reduction control for reducing the output of the internal combustion engine by initiating engine idling of the internal combustion engine, and prohibiting the drive of the air conditioning compressor, is implemented.
