A control system for controlling a vehicle which has an engine for driving at least one of wheels thereof and a motor for driving at least one of the rest of the wheels thereof. The control system includes: a motor generator configured to be driven by the engine for generating first alternating-current power at a first voltage; an inverter which converts the first alternating-current power to second power at a second voltage lower than the first voltage or to third direct-current power at a third voltage; and a battery to be charged with the second power supplied from the inverter. The motor is supplied with the third direct-current power at the third voltage obtained from the first alternating-current power.

What is claimed is: 1. A control system for controlling a vehicle which has an engine for driving at least one of wheels thereof and a motor for driving at least one of the rest of the wheels thereof, the control system comprising: a motor generator configured to be driven by the engine for generating first alternating-current power at a first voltage; an inverter which converts the first alternating-current power to second power at a second voltage lower than the first voltage or to third direct-current power at a third voltage different from the second voltage; and a battery to be charged with the second power supplied from the inverter, wherein the motor is supplied with the third direct-current power at the third voltage obtained from the first alternating-current power. 2. A control system for controlling a vehicle which has an engine for driving at least one of wheels thereof and a motor for driving at least one of the rest of the wheels thereof, the control system comprising: a motor generator configured to be driven by the engine for generating first alternating-current power at a first voltage; an inverter which converts the first alternating-current power to second power at a second voltage lower than the first voltage or to third direct-current power at a third voltage; and a battery to be charged with the second power supplied from the inverter, wherein the motor is supplied with the third direct-current power at the third voltage obtained from the first alternating-current power, and wherein the inverter is supplied with fourth power at a fourth voltage discharged from the battery and converts the fourth power to fifth power at a fifth voltage, and the motor generator is supplied with the fifth power and generates driving force for starting the engine. 3. The control system according to claim 1, wherein the engine is started when an operation of an accelerator is detected. 4. The control system according to claim 1, wherein the second power is direct-current power. 5. A control system for controlling a vehicle which has an engine for driving at least one of wheels thereof and a motor for driving at least one of the rest of the wheels thereof, the control system comprising: a motor generator configured to be driven by the engine for generating first alternating-current power at a first voltage; an inverter which converts the first alternating-current power to second power at a second voltage lower than the first voltage or to third direct-current power at a third voltage; a battery to be charged with the second power supplied from the inverter; a first switch for changing electrical connection between the inverter and the battery; and a second switch for changing electrical connection between the inverter and the motor, wherein the motor is supplied with the third direct-current power at the third voltage obtained from the first alternating-current power, and wherein, when starting the engine, the first switch is closed and the second switch is opened, so that electricity can be supplied from the battery to the inverter, when charging the battery, the first switch is closed and the second switch is opened, so that electricity can be supplied from the inverter to the battery, and when driving the motor, the first switch is opened and the second switch is closed, so that electricity can be supplied from the inverter to the motor. 6. A method of controlling a vehicle which has an engine for driving at least one of wheels thereof and a motor for driving at least one of the rest of the wheels thereof, the method comprising: converting first alternating-current power at a first voltage generated by the motor generator to second direct-current power at a second voltage lower than the first voltage, supplying the second direct-current power to a battery for charging the battery; rectifying the first alternating-current power generated by the motor generator to obtain third direct-current power at a third voltage, supplying the third direct-current power to the motor for driving the motor; and converting fourth electric power at a fourth voltage discharged from a battery to fifth alternating-current power at a fifth voltage, supplying the fifth alternating-current power to a motor generator, starting the engine with driving force of the motor generator.
