To improve the drivability of an automobile at the time of transmission which restricts a torque of an engine. A hybrid automobile is structured which performs transmission control for performing control so that an output restriction is temporarily released in a step of restoring a torque that is reduced once in neutral at the time of transmission during the output restriction by an output restriction control unit and a torque by a motor is added to the torque of the engine.
