In the case that there is the charge record of the charger at the system startup time, the motor travel priority mode is set as the travel mode when the accumulated charge ration SOC is more than or equal to the threshold value Sev, and the hybrid travel priority mode is set as the travel mode when the accumulated charge ratio SOC is less than the threshold value Sev. In the case that there is no charge record of the charger, the travel mode is set in the same way as the case that there is the charge record when the hybrid travel shift flag Fhv is equal to value ‘0’, and the hybrid travel priority mode is set as the travel mode when the hybrid travel shift flag Fhv is equal to value ‘1’.
