Sailing stop control method and control device for vehicle
A sailing stop control method for a vehicle including a transmission and a friction engaging element in series between an engine and drive wheels includes performing a sailing stop control to coast by shutting off power transmission by the friction engaging element, stopping the engine based on satisfaction of a sailing enter condition, restarting the engine upon satisfaction of a sailing exit condition during coasting by the sailing stop control, executing a shift control to set a target speed ratio of the transmission to a highest speed ratio smaller than a coasting speed ratio in normal time and satisfying engine exhaust performance after the restart of the engine if the sailing exit condition is a brake pedal depressing operation, and re-engaging the friction engaging element, if input and output revolution speeds of the friction engaging element are determined to be a synchronous revolution speed after end of the shift control.
1. A sailing stop control method for a vehicle including a transmission and a friction engaging element arranged in series between an engine and drive wheels, comprising:
performing a sailing stop control to coast by shutting off power transmission by the friction engaging element;
stopping the engine based on satisfaction of a sailing enter condition;
restarting the engine upon satisfaction of a sailing exit condition during coasting by the sailing stop control;
determining if the sailing exit condition is a brake petal depressing operation;
if the sailing exit condition is a brake petal depressing operation, executing a shift control to set a target speed ratio of the transmission to a highest speed ratio in a speed ratio region smaller than a coasting speed ratio during the coasting, the highest speed ratio satisfying engine exhaust performance after the restart of the engine;
determining, after an end of the shift control of the transmission, if input and output revolution speeds of the friction engaging element are equal to a synchronous revolution speed, and
if the input and output revolution speeds of the friction engaging element are equal to the synchronous revolution speed, re-engaging the friction engaging element.
2. The sailing stop control method for the vehicle according to claim 1 , further comprising:
determining if the sailing exit condition is an accelerator petal depressing condition;
if the sailing exit condition is the accelerator petal depressing operation, executing a shift control to set the target speed ratio of the transmission after the restart of the engine based on power performance.
3. The sailing stop control method for the vehicle according to claim 2 ,
wherein, if the sailing exit condition is the accelerator petal depressing operation, the target speed ratio of the transmission after the restart of the engine is changed toward a low speed ratio side as an accelerator pedal depression speed increases.
4. A sailing stop control device for a vehicle including an engine, a transmission, a friction engaging element, and, drive wheels, comprising:
a sailing stop controller programmed to:
execute a sailing stop control to coast by shutting off power transmission by the friction engaging element and stopping the engine based on satisfaction of a sailing enter condition,
restart the engine upon satisfaction of a sailing exit condition during coasting by the sailing stop control,
determine if the sailing exit condition is a brake petal depressing operation,
if the sailing exit condition is a brake petal depressing operation, execute a shift control to set a target speed ratio of the transmission to a highest speed ratio in a speed ratio region smaller than a coasting speed ratio during the coasting, the highest speed ratio satisfying engine exhaust performance after the restart of the engine,
determine, after an end of the shift control of the transmission, if input and output revolution speeds of the friction engaging element are equal to a synchronous revolution speed, and
if the input and output revolution speeds of the friction engaging element are equal to the synchronous resolution speed, re-engage the friction engagement element.
