A vehicle includes an engine, a traction motor, a clutch configured to mechanically couple the engine and traction motor, and a controller. The controller may be configured to, in response to an engine starting and achieving a target speed while the traction motor is generating torque to drive the vehicle, retard engine spark, based on an amount of engine acceleration required to achieve the target speed, to reduce engine torque, and in response to the engine torque falling below a threshold value, lock the clutch.
