Apparatus and method for controlling motor for vehicle

Abstract

A motor control apparatus for a vehicle includes a data detector detecting driving data and a vehicle controller controlling a drive motor according to the driving data. The vehicle controller includes an acceleration generator determining a request torque and a request speed using the driving data and generating a request acceleration using the request torque and the request speed; a driving point determinator selecting an inductance control current map or a motor efficiency control current map according to the request acceleration and determining a current driving point according to the request torque and the request speed using the selected current map; and a motor controller controlling the drive motor using the current driving point.
