In one mode of a vehicle control apparatus and a vehicle control method according to the present invention, at primary steering, which is a state in which the steering wheel of the vehicle is rotated from its neutral position in one of the right and left directions, first braking force generated by a front driving and braking apparatus and first driving force generated by a rear driving and braking apparatus are calculated, based on the speed of the vehicle and physical quantities relating to the steering angle of the vehicle, and a first control command for generating the first braking force and the first driving force is output. In this way, the turning performance of the vehicle can be improved, without generating acceleration/deceleration not intended by the driver.
A vehicle control apparatus provided in a vehicle including a front driving and braking apparatus that applies driving and braking force to front wheels of the vehicle and a rear driving and braking apparatus that applies driving and braking force to rear wheels of the vehicle,
A vehicle control method executed by a control unit mounted in a vehicle, the vehicle control method comprising applying braking force to front wheels of the vehicle and driving force to rear wheels of the vehicle when a steering wheel of the vehicle is rotated at 60 deg/s while the vehicle is running at 60 km/h.
A vehicle control method executed by a control unit mounted in a vehicle, the vehicle control method comprising applying driving force to front wheels of the vehicle and braking force to rear wheels of the vehicle when a steering wheel of the vehicle is rotated clockwise at 60 deg/s and is rotated counterclockwise at 60 deg/s while the vehicle is running at 60 km/h.
