A vehicle control apparatus having plural microcontrollers interconnected by serial communication realizes data referencing between the microcontrollers without increasing the load on the CPUs and enables the development of control application software easily. The vehicle control apparatus includes plural processing units each having a computing means, a data storage means, and a communication means. Each of the plural processing units has a data update monitoring means which monitors access to the data storage means, acquires, upon detecting update of data in the data storage means, the updated data and a corresponding address, transfers the data and address to the communication means, and starts transmission to another one or more of the plural processing units.
