A vehicle controller (28) controls a power train (10) of a vehicle and is configured to switch control of the power train (10) between a first control and a second control. The second control reduces operating noise of the power train (10) by a greater degree than the first control. The vehicle controller (28) is configured to, based on sounds in a passenger compartment (32), perform a mood determination in order to determine whether an occupant of the vehicle is in a state of high tolerance for the operating noise or in a state of low tolerance for the operating noise; control the power train (10) through the first control when determining that the occupant is in the state of high tolerance through the mood determination; and control the power train (10) through the second control when determining that the occupant is in the state of low tolerance through the mood determination.
