An opportunity to regenerate a filter is secured when a user has selected a first travel mode in which the engine stops rotating and travels with power from a motor. A plurality of travel modes including a first travel mode in which the engine is stopped and the vehicle travels with power from a motor and a second travel mode in which the engine travels is performed based on a user operation. A hybrid vehicle including a mode selection device that selects one travel mode from a mode, wherein a filter regeneration condition is satisfied in which a particulate matter accumulation amount of the filter is equal to or greater than a predetermined accumulation amount and a filter temperature is equal to or greater than a predetermined temperature. When the first travel mode is selected by the mode selection device, the vehicle travels in the second travel mode. Thereby, when the user stops the rotation of the engine and selects the first travel mode in which the vehicle travels with the power from the motor, an opportunity to regenerate the filter is secured.
