Vehicle and manufacturing method of vehicle

1. A vehicle comprising:

an engine;

a throttle body including a passage section formed with an air-intake passage through which air to be supplied to the engine flows, and a throttle valve provided in the air-intake passage; and

a throttle valve controller which controls opening or closing of the throttle valve, wherein the throttle valve controller includes:

a memory section which pre-stores a medium output control command in such a manner that the medium output control command continues to be stored in the memory section in a state in which electric power supply to the throttle valve controller is ceased, the medium output control command indicating a medium output opening degree of the throttle valve, corresponding to a preset medium output range included in a range between a minimum output and a maximum output of an engine output, the medium output opening degree corresponding to a predetermined upper limit value of the engine output such that when the engine output meets a predetermined output limiting condition, the engine output is controlled to fall into the medium output range while the vehicle is traveling; and

a learning section that performs a learning operation for learning a fully closed position and a fully open position of the throttle valve,

wherein the controller controls opening or closing of the throttle valve in accordance with a control command based on a learning value obtained by the learning section, when the engine output does not meet the output limiting condition; and

wherein the controller controls opening or closing of the throttle valve in accordance with the medium output control command read from the memory section, when the engine output meets the output limiting condition.

2. The vehicle according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a termination request detector which detects a termination request command regarding driving of the engine,

wherein the learning section performs the learning operation, when the termination request detector has detected the termination request command.

3. The vehicle according to claim 1 ,

wherein the learning section performs the learning operation when driving control for the engine is stopped.

4. The vehicle according to claim 1 ,

wherein the memory section stores therein the learning value obtained by the learning section before the electric power supply to the throttle valve controller is ceased, and

wherein the throttle valve controller reads the learning value from the memory section after the electric power supply to the throttle valve controller is started, and controls opening or closing of the throttle valve based on the learning value.

5. A method of manufacturing a vehicle, the method comprising:

measuring a medium output opening degree of a test throttle valve that precedes a throttle body to be mounted in the vehicle, corresponding to a preset medium output range for an output limitation included in a range between a minimum output and a maximum output of a test engine output, by use of an engine bench test apparatus which obtains the test engine output;

measuring a medium output intake air amount in a case where the test throttle valve is opened at the medium output opening degree;

assembling the throttle body to be mounted in the vehicle in such manner that the medium output opening degree of a throttle valve to be mounted in the vehicle falls into a preset tolerance range, the medium output intake air amount being obtained at the medium output opening degree; and

pre-storing a medium output control command in a throttle valve controller which controls opening or closing of the throttle valve to be mounted in the vehicle, the medium output control command indicating the medium output opening degree of the throttle valve to be mounted in the vehicle, corresponding to the medium output intake air amount.
