Abstract

See full text

A control device for an engine is provided. The control device includes an accelerator opening detector for detecting an opening of an accelerator, a target acceleration setter for setting a target acceleration of a vehicle based on the detected accelerator opening, and an engine controller for adjusting an engine torque to achieve the set target acceleration. The target acceleration setter sets the target acceleration such that a characteristic of a change of a jerk produced in the vehicle due to a reduction of the accelerator opening correlates to a characteristic of a change of a jerk produced in the vehicle due to an increase of the accelerator opening, the increase of the accelerator opening performed in an early half of a process of acceleration to a constant speed travel of the vehicle, the reduction of the accelerator opening performed in a latter half of the process.
