To suppress a delay in the response of motor torque output when a vehicle shifts to evacuation traveling, while inhibiting damage to a clutch mechanism.SOLUTION: A vehicle controller is used for a vehicle including: an engine; a motor; a clutch mechanism which is provided in a drive transmission path between the engine and the motor, and which switches between an engagement state and a release state, thereby being capable of switching the drive transmission path between a connection state and a disconnection state; and at least two control systems for controlling the action of the clutch mechanism. When the clutch mechanism is in the release state, and when an abnormality occurs in one of the control systems, the vehicle controller uses the other of the control systems to put the clutch mechanism into the engagement state while controlling the torque output of the motor to zero.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2 【課題】クラッチ機構の損壊を抑制しつつ、車両が退避走行への移行したときの、モータのトルク出力の応答の遅れを抑制すること。【解決手段】車両の制御装置は、エンジンと、モータと、エンジンとモータとの間の駆動伝達路に設けられ、係合状態と解放状態との間で切り替わることにより、駆動伝達路を接続状態と切断状態との間で切り替え可能なクラッチ機構と、クラッチ機構の動作を制御するための少なくとも２つの制御系統とを備える車両の制御装置であって、クラッチ機構が解放状態にあるときに、一の制御系統において異常が発生した場合、モータのトルク出力をゼロに制御した状態で、他の制御系統によってクラッチ機構を係合状態にさせる。【選択図】図２
