A traction control method and a traction control apparatus for a vehicle are provided. The traction control method includes: estimating driving torque for each wheel and a difference between left and right wheel rotation speeds; determining a situation, in which the difference between the left and right wheel rotation speeds exceeds a first set value, to be a split wheel spin situation; estimating a maximum coefficient of friction between a spinning wheel and a road surface in the split wheel spin situation and estimating a maximum driving torque, at which the road surface is acceptable, by the maximum coefficient of friction; and obtaining a difference between driving torque of the spinning wheel and the maximum driving torque to calculate a road surface limitation excess driving torque and determining entry into traction control when the road surface limitation excess driving torque exceeds a second set value.

Traction control method and traction control apparatus for vehicle

A device for controlling wheel slip of a vehicle includes: a displacement sensor for measuring a suspension displacement of drive wheels; and a controller configured to control braking of the drive wheels in consideration of the suspension displacement of the drive wheels when slip occurs on the drive wheels. The device may control braking of a slip-occurred wheel in consideration of a displacement of a suspension corresponding to the slip-occurred wheel of the vehicle.
