Zusammenfassung:A hybrid electric vehicle including: (a) an engagement device disposed between an engine and an electric motor; (b) a transmission disposed between the electric motor and drive wheels; (c) an electric storage device configured to supply an electric power to the electric motor; and (d) a control apparatus. When the engine is to be started, the engagement device is engaged to transmit a torque from the electric motor to the engine, for thereby starting the engine. The control apparatus is configured to inhibit stop of the engine, when an outputtable electric power outputtable from the electric storage device is not larger than a threshold value. The threshold value is not smaller than a start-case-required electric power that is required to start the engine, such that a difference value between the threshold value and the start-case-required electric power is not larger than a predetermined value.
