A power outputting apparatus determines whether a parking gear and a parking lock pole of a parking lock mechanism are engaged. When they are engaged, a second motor outputs a torque which is the sum of a pushing torque that is slightly greater than torque pulses generated in a ring gear shaft by the torque pulses of the engine during cranking, and a reaction force torque necessary for cranking so that a first motor cranks an engine. As a result, it is possible to suppress the parking gear and the parking lock pole of the parking lock mechanism from vibrating due to the torque pulses generated during cranking of the engine, and thus also minimize the contact noise resulting therefrom.
