(57) [Abstract] [PROBLEMS] To provide a hybrid electric vehicle that can reduce pollution and improve energy efficiency and can satisfy traveling performance even when applied to a small vehicle. A hybrid electric vehicle that includes a first wheel drive shaft (15) and a second wheel drive shaft (24) and travels by using electric energy and mechanical energy, and a prime mover (10). A shaft member 13 connected to the prime mover 10, a first motor generator 11 connected to the shaft member 13, and a clutch mechanism 17 arranged between the shaft member 13 and the first wheel drive shaft 15. A second motor generator 12 connected to the second wheel drive shaft 24, and a control means for controlling the prime mover 10, the clutch mechanism 17, and the first and second motor generators 11, 12. . |
