A control apparatus for a hybrid vehicle having an engine and a motor as drive power sources has a transmission between the engine and a vehicle drive wheel, that changes drive power transmission by selecting from a plurality of gear speeds. The control apparatus detects the drive power requested for the vehicle drive wheel and, as a result, sets a gear speed of the transmission to cause the engine to operate in a predetermined high-efficiency operation state, such that any difference between the requested vehicle drive power and the engine output is compensated by either a drive operation of the motor, or a regenerative operation of the motor.

1. A control apparatus for a hybrid vehicle having an engine and a motor as drive power sources, and having, between the engine and a vehicle drive wheel, a transmission that changes drive power transmission by selection from a plurality of gear speeds, the control apparatus comprising:a controller that detects a drive power requested for the vehicle drive wheel and that sets a gear speed of the transmission to cause the engine to operate in a predetermined high-efficiency operation state, and such that a difference between the vehicle drive power requested and an engine output is compensated by one of a drive operation of the motor and a regenerative operation of the motor,wherein the gear speed is set such that the highest gear speed that allows for the requested drive power is selected. 2. A control apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the controller sets in the transmission a gear speed of a least gear ratio within a range such that the engine is operated in the predetermined high-efficiency operation state, and such that the difference between the vehicle drive power requested and the engine output is compensated by one of the drive operation of the motor and the regenerative operation of the motor. 3. A control apparatus according to claim 2, wherein the predetermined high-efficiency operation state is a state where a multiplication product of an efficiency of the engine and a transmission efficiency of the transmission maximizes. 4. A control apparatus according to claim 3, wherein the controller sets the gear speed of the transmission and the operation state of the engine such that the engine is operated in a predetermined good emission region. 5. A control apparatus according to claim 2, wherein the controller sets the gear speed of the transmission and the operation state of the engine such that the engine is operated in a predetermined good emission region. 6. A control apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the predetermined high-efficiency operation state is a state where a multiplication product of an efficiency of the engine and a transmission efficiency of the transmission maximizes. 7. A control apparatus according to claim 6, wherein the controller sets the gear speed of the transmission and the operation state of the engine such that the engine is operated in a predetermined good emission region. 8. A control apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the controller sets the gear speed of the transmission and the operation state of the engine such that the engine is operated in a predetermined good emission region. 9. A control apparatus for a hybrid vehicle having an engine and a motor as vehicle drive power sources and having, between the engine and a vehicle drive wheel, a transmission that changes drive power transmission by selection from a plurality of gear speeds, the control apparatus comprising:a controller that detects a drive power requested for the vehicle and that sets a gear speed of the transmission such that an efficiency of regenerative braking performed by the motor maximizes when the requested drive power is negative,wherein the gear speed is set such that the highest gear speed that allows for the requested drive power is selected. 10. A control apparatus according to claim 9, wherein when the requested drive power is negative, the controller sets a gear speed of a least gear ratio in the transmission. 11. A control apparatus according to claim 9, wherein the gear speed selected varies in accordance with whether or not an operation of the engine is at a stop during a regenerative operation of the motor. 12. A control apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the controller selects a gear speed of a least gear ratio during an operation of the engine. 13. A control apparatus for a hybrid vehicle according to claim 11, wherein the controller selects a gear speed such that a drive efficiency of the motor maximizes during a stop of operation of the engine. 14. A control apparatus according to claim 9, wherein the controller sets the gear speed of the transmission based on a rotational torque and rotational speed of the motor, such that the efficiency of the regenerative braking performed by the motor maximizes. 15. A control method for a hybrid vehicle having an engine and a motor as drive power sources, and having, between the engine and a vehicle drive wheel, a transmission that changes drive power transmission by selection from a plurality of gear speeds, the control method comprising:detecting a drive power requested for the vehicle drive wheel; andsetting a gear speed of the transmission to cause the engine to operate in a predetermined high-efficiency operation state, and such that a difference between the vehicle drive power requested and an engine output is compensated by one of a drive operation of the motor and a regenerative operation of the motor,wherein the gear speed is set such that the highest gear speed that allows for the requested drive power is selected. 16. A control method for a hybrid vehicle having an engine and a motor as vehicle drive power sources and having, between the engine and a vehicle drive wheel, a transmission that changes drive power transmission by selection from a plurality of gear speeds, the control method comprising:detecting a drive power requested for the vehicle; andsetting a gear speed of the transmission such that an efficiency of regenerative braking performed by the motor maximizes when the requested drive power is negative,wherein the gear speed is set such that the highest gear speed that allows for the requested drive power is selected. 17. A control method according to claim 16, wherein the gear speed of the transmission is set based on a rotational torque and rotational speed of the motor, such that the efficiency of the regenerative braking performed by the motor maximizes.
