Vehicular behavior control apparatus

A vehicular behavior control apparatus that is configured to control behavior of a vehicle having a driving device that generates a driving force for driving the vehicle, a braking device that generates a braking force applied to each wheel, and a control unit that controls the driving device based on a driving operation amount of a driver and controls the braking device based on a braking operation amount of the driver, wherein

• the control unit is configured to calculate a target yaw moment of the vehicle and a target deceleration of the vehicle that are necessary for securing stable behavior of the vehicle during non-braking turning, to calculate a first vehicle longitudinal force generated by a braking force applied to at least one of the turning inner front and rear wheels to achieve the target yaw moment, to calculate a second vehicle longitudinal force required to achieve the target deceleration, and to control, when it is determined that the first vehicle longitudinal force is less than or equal to the second vehicle longitudinal force, the driving device so as to generate a target driving force equal to a value obtained by adding a correction amount based on the first vehicle longitudinal force to a value obtained by subtracting the second vehicle longitudinal force from a driving force based on the driving operation amount of the driver.
