That is, determination of "NO" in step S340 and execution of step S360 carries out the deceleration smoothing processing, thus preventing the deceleration shock.
  • step S340 determination is executed in step S340. If it is determined that the governor injection quantity QGOV has been set to the value exceeding 0, the relationship becomes QSMD ⁇ QGOV ("YES" in step 340). Therefore the governor injection quantity QGOV is set as the basic fuel injection quantity QBASE (S350).

  • step S100 a series of the processing in step S100, S110, S300, S310, S320, S340, S360, S160, S162 is repeated.
  • the driver has accelerated in accordance with the relationship of accelerator opening degree ACCPF > last accelerator opening degree ACCPFOL + ⁇ .
  • the governor injection quantity QGOV is far smaller than the deceleration smoothing fuel injection quantity QSMD. Therefore, the governor injection quantity QGOV is smaller than the last basic fuel injection quantity QBASEOL as the deceleration smoothing fuel injection quantity QSMD.
  • step S110 the determination becomes "NO" such that the deceleration processing (S300 to S360) will be continued.

  • the driver's request for acceleration can be satisfied even at a time for the deceleration smoothing control. That is, according to the conventional art, if the driver switches the operation from deceleration to acceleration, the driver may have uncomfortable feeling because the acceleration is continued for a while. However, according to this embodiment, acceleration is immediately suppressed in response to decelerating operation, resulting in quick response to the driver's request for deceleration. Therefore, this embodiment provides excellent derivability without giving uncomfortable feeling to the driver.
  • the sharp decrease in the governor injection quantity QGOV (indicated by a chain line) is faster than the decrease in the deceleration smoothing fuel injection quantity QSMD, the basic fuel injection quantity QBASE is suppressed to be decreased by a quantity equivalent to the first deceleration smoothing quantity QSMD, i.e., the deceleration smoothing control starts at the time T4 onward.
  • the deceleration smoothing fuel injection quantity QSMD is switched to be decreased by a quantity equivalent to the second deceleration smoothing quantity QSMD at every cycle of processing (S330).
