A drive force control system controls acceleration of a vehicle accurately in line with an operation of an accelerator pedal to improve an acceleration feel. A controller calculates a corrected target acceleration when a required acceleration is large and an operating speed of the accelerator pedal is fast, and converts the corrected target acceleration into a target driving force to propel the vehicle so as to achieve the corrected target acceleration by generating the target driving force.

Driving force control system for vehicle

A vehicle control system configured to control deceleration of a vehicle properly according to a driver's intention in one-pedal mode. In the one-pedal mode, a controller controls deceleration of the vehicle based on a deceleration level set in accordance with a speed of the vehicle. If the brake pedal is manipulated to decelerate the vehicle while the vehicle is operated in the one-pedal mode and an operating amount of an accelerator pedal falls within the decelerating range, the controller updates the deceleration level based on an operation of the brake pedal.

Vehicle control system

A driving support device includes: a memory; and a processor including hardware, the processor being configured to acquire line-of-sight information about a line of sight of a driver seated in a driver's seat of a vehicle, and output driving support information for supporting driving of the vehicle, onto a visual field of the driver based on the line-of-sight information.

Driving support device, wearable device, driving support system, driving support method, and computer-readable recording medium

A control device of a vehicle drive device includes an engine having a supercharger and an automatic transmission outputting power of the engine to drive wheels. When an upshift of the automatic transmission is performed by executing an acceleration operation, if a progress status of a supercharging pressure increase in a supercharger pressure increasing process by the supercharger is a status in an initial period of the increasing process, a supercharging pressure increase degree before start of an inertia phase of the upshift is made smaller than a supercharging pressure increase degree after a predetermined timing subsequent to the start of the inertia phase, while if the progress status of the supercharging pressure increase is a status in an ending period of the increasing process, the supercharging pressure increase degree before the start of the inertia phase is made larger than the supercharging pressure increase degree after the predetermined timing.

Control unit for vehicle driving device

A control device for a vehicular power transmitting system including a torque converter () having a pump impeller (), a turbine wheel (), a stator wheel () rotatably disposed between the turbine wheel and the pump impeller, and a lock-up clutch (L/U) includes a capacity coefficient control unit () that controls a capacity coefficient of the torque converter by controlling rotation of the stator wheel, and the capacity coefficient control unit increases the capacity coefficient of the torque converter based on an amount of heat generated during slip control of the lock-up clutch.
