Abstract
A hybrid vehicle travels by a driving force of either one or both of an engine and an electric motor. The hybrid vehicle includes a traveling mode switching module that switches among a plurality of traveling modes including a motor traveling mode in which the vehicle travels by the motor prior to the engine and an engine and motor combined traveling mode in which the vehicle travels using both the motor and the engine, and a condition determining module that determines whether a bad road condition defined in advance is met. If it is determined that the bad road condition is met, the traveling mode switching module causes the engine to start regardless of the traveling mode at the time when the engine is stopped, and prohibits a stop of the engine while the bad road condition is met.
