A control device for a vehicle includes an electronic control unit. The electronic control unit is configured to set a share ratio of driving force of the first electric motor and the second electric motor. The electronic control unit is configured to set the share ratio of the driving force such that when the temperature of a pinion gear in a planetary gear mechanism is higher than a specified temperature, the share ratio of the driving force of the first electric motor is lower than the share ratio when the temperature is lower than the specified temperature.
