Work vehicle

A work vehicle comprising:

• an engine;
• a transmission capable of converting power of the engine into forward travelling power or reverse travelling power and outputting the converted power;
• a travelling apparatus capable of being driven by the power output from the transmission;
• a travelling body capable of travelling using the travelling apparatus;
• an accelerator operation tool capable of changing a target rotational speed of the engine through an operation;
• a travelling state determination unit capable of determining a travelling state of the travelling body;
• and
• a control unit that, if it has been determined by the travelling state determination unit that the travelling body is in a reverse travelling state, restricts an upper limit value of the target rotational speed of the engine that is based on an operation on the accelerator operation tool to be a lower value than in a case where it has been determined by the travelling state determination unit that the travelling body is in a forward travelling state;
• wherein, for a same travelling speed in the forward travelling state and the reverse travelling state, a ratio of a reduction ratio when in the reverse travelling state to a smallest reduction ratio when in the forward travelling state is set to be substantially equal to a ratio of the upper limit value of the target rotational speed of the engine when in the reverse travelling state to the upper limit value of the target rotational speed of the engine when in the forward travelling state at the smallest reduction ratio.
