A hybrid vehicle driving apparatus includes: an engine; a first rotating machine; a second rotating machine; planetary gear mechanisms capable of forming a four-element complex planetary to which the engine, the first rotating machine, the second rotating machine, and drive wheels are connected; and a controller. In a collinear diagram of the complex planetary, the first and second rotating machines are adjacent to each other and disposed on one side with respect to the engine. In a state in which the complex planetary is formed, the controller is configured to operate, in a predetermined mode, the first and second rotating machines at operating points at which a total of absolute values of workloads of the first and second rotating machines is smaller than the total of the absolute values at operating points for achieving an electric power balance between the first and second rotating machines.
