Abstract: An engine unit includes: an engine that is able to independently inject fuel into cylinders; a cleaning device that cleans exhaust gas from the engine; and a control device that performs low-temperature starting control for increasing an amount of injected fuel when the engine is started at a low temperature. The control device performs temperature increase control for performing fuel cutoff for some cylinders of the engine and increasing an amount of fuel injected into other cylinders after an increase in an amount of fuel in the low-temperature starting control has reached a first predetermined amount when an increase in temperature of the cleaning device is requested while the low-temperature starting control is being performed.

Abstract: A controller for a vehicle is provided. Temperature increasing control executed by a temperature increasing control unit executes a fuel drawing process to generate heat in a catalytic device and transfer the generated heat to a downstream side via gas flowing through the exhaust passage. The fuel drawing process performs fuel injection as a crankshaft is rotated when combustion in a cylinder is stopped to draw an air-fuel mixture containing unburned fuel into the catalytic device. An obtainment unit obtains an intake air temperature. A temperature increasing control unit controls an air-fuel ratio of the air-fuel mixture in the fuel drawing process based on the intake air temperature so that when the intake air temperature is relatively high, the air-fuel ratio of the air-fuel mixture becomes a leaner value than when the intake air temperature is relatively low.
