An object of the present invention is to provide a fuel injection control technique which maximizes engine power according to fuel evaporation characteristics. The fuel injection timing in the intake stroke is delayed according as a physical quantity affecting the fuel evaporation time changes such that the fuel evaporation time decreases. Further, the fuel injection timing when a physical quantity affecting the fuel evaporation time is such that the fuel evaporation time decreases is set closer to the end of the intake stroke than the fuel injection timing when the physical quantity is such that the fuel evaporation time increases. The fuel injection timing is controlled so as to maximize engine power according to fuel evaporation times.

What is claimed is: 1. A control device of a direct injection engine, which injects fuel directly into a cylinder at least in an intake stroke and then ignites evaporated fuel therein, wherein:the control device comprises evaporation speed detecting means for detecting an evaporation speed by detecting a component of the fuel;and the fuel injection timing is set toward the end of the intake stroke when the evaporation speed detected by the evaporation speed detecting means is large at the time of a driving operation so that a throttle valve that controls an air amount supplied into the cylinder is fully opened.
