Zusammenfassung:A drive control device for a hybrid vehicle is provided with a differential device including four rotary elements; and an engine, first and second electric motors and an output rotary member which are respectively connected to the four rotary elements. One of the four rotary elements is constituted by a rotary component of a first differential mechanism and a rotary component of a second differential mechanism selectively connected through a clutch, and one of the rotary components is selectively fixed to a stationary member through a brake. The drive control device comprises a mode selecting operation device selecting an acceleration drive mode oriented to vehicle acceleration and a fuel efficiency drive mode oriented to fuel efficiency. When the acceleration drive mode is selected at the start of the vehicle, the vehicle starts in motor running or engine running in which a drive force is generated by operating the first electric motor and the second electric motor while when the fuel efficiency drive mode associated with a requirement for fuel efficiency is selected, the vehicle starts in motor running or engine running in which a drive force is generated by operating the first electric motor or the second electric motor. The drive control device has a first motor drive mode in which the second electric motor is used for running with the brake placed in an engaged state; a first engine drive mode in which the first electric motor is caused to generate a reaction torque while the second electric motor is caused to generate a drive force with the brake placed in an engaged state; a second motor drive mode in which the first electric motor and the second electric motor are used for running with the brake and the clutch placed in an engaged state; and a second engine drive mode in which the first electric motor and the second electric motor are caused to generate a reaction torque with the clutch placed in an engaged state. When the fuel efficiency drive mode is selected and the motor running is requested, the first motor drive mode is selected. When the fuel efficiency drive mode is selected and the engine running is requested, the first engine drive mode is selected. When the acceleration drive mode is selected and the motor running is requested, the second motor drive mode is selected. When the acceleration drive mode is selected and the engine running is requested, the second engine drive mode is selected.
