Abstract
In an internal combustion engine an air-fuel ratio is switched between at least two target values without generating torque fluctuations, while a deterioration in fuel consumption performance and exhaust performance is suppressed. When a condition for switching a combustion mode from stoichiometric combustion to lean combustion and a condition that the amount of change in a target torque is less than or equal to a predetermined value are satisfied, a target EGR rate is increased towards an EGR limit prior to switching the target air-fuel ratio. The target air-fuel ratio is maintained at the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio until the target EGR rate reaches the EGR limit, and in response to the target EGR rate reaching the EGR limit, the target air-fuel ratio is changed towards a lean air-fuel ratio.
