Electric vehicle

An electric vehicle includes: a driving device including an AC motor and an inverter driving the AC motor; a control device for controlling the driving device; and a heat transfer device that transfers heat from the drive device to a heating target. The control device executes loss increase control for controlling the drive device so as to increase the power loss compared to a case where a predetermined heat requirement condition to be transferred to the heating target is satisfied. The loss increase control includes a first control of making a d-axis current of the AC motor greater than a reference d-axis current, which is the d-axis current when the heat demand condition is not satisfied, when an index value related to a rotational speed of the AC motor is less than a first threshold value. 本发明提供一种电动车辆，包括：驱动装置，包括交流马达和驱动所述交流马达的变换器；控制装置，控制所述驱动装置；及热传递装置，将所述驱动装置的热传递到加热对象。所述控制装置在向所述加热对象传递的预定的热要求条件成立的情况下，执行以与所述热要求条件不成立的情况相比使所述电力损失增加的方式控制所述驱动装置的损失增加控制，所述损失增加控制包括如下的第一控制：在与所述交流马达的转速相关的指标值小于第一阈值的情况下，使所述交流马达的d轴电流比所述热要
