In a hybrid vehicle of the invention, when a voltage level E of a
low-voltage battery exceeds a preset alert reference value Eth1 (step
S115), fueling control activates a negative pressure pump with a preset
amount of power consumption for standard fuel vapor treatment (step
S125). When the voltage level E of the low-voltage battery exceeds a low
charge reference value Elow but is not higher than the preset alert
reference value Eth1 (steps S115 and S120), the fueling control activates
the negative pressure pump with a smaller amount of power consumption
(step S130). When the voltage level E of the low-voltage battery is not
higher than the low charge reference value Elow (step S120), the fueling
control inactivates the negative pressure pump (step S135). Such control
enables at least a voltage of the low charge reference value Elow to be
reserved in the low-voltage battery even after regulation of internal
pressure of a fuel tank. This effectively prevents an insufficiency of
electrical energy by the regulation of the internal pressure of the fuel
tank.
