Abstract

See full text

In a 2H mode of two-wheel drive and a 4H mode of four-wheel drive, a driver does not put much importance on traveling performance on a rough road. Therefore, implementation of both of idling-stop control and neutral control is permitted. Compared with the 4H mode, in a 4HLc mode for limiting differential motions of a center differential gear and a rear differential gear, it can be regarded that the driver puts importance on the traveling performance on the rough road. Therefore, the implementation of the idling-stop control is prohibited and the implementation of the neutral control is permitted. In a 4LLc mode for switching a sub-reduction gear to a low gear side compared with the 4HLc mode, since it can be regarded that the driver puts more importance on the traveling performance on the rough road, both of the implementation of the idling stop control and the implementation of the neutral control are prohibited.
