A control method for an electric vehicle controls braking force when the accelerator operation amount is less than a prescribed value and controls drive force when the accelerator operation amount is at least a prescribed value. The electric vehicle control method estimates disturbance torque that acts on the motor as a resistance component relating to gradient; and executes correction whereby the braking force or the drive force is increased/decreased on the basis of the disturbance torque estimated value, such that the resistance component is negated. A determination is made regarding whether or not the accelerator operation amount is a partial equivalent amount and, if at least either the accelerator operation amount on a downhill road is greater than the partial equivalent amount or the accelerator operation amount on an uphill road is less than the partial equivalent amount, the correction amount is reduced.

An electrically driven vehicle includes a motor configured to supply the vehicle with a braking force or a driving force corresponding to an accelerator operation amount. The braking force is controlled when the accelerator operation amount is less than a predetermined value and the driving force is controlled when the accelerator operation amount is the predetermined value or more. A torque target value at which the motor is caused to output a braking or driving torque corresponding to the accelerator operation amount is calculated. A disturbance torque acting on the motor as a resistance corresponding to a road surface gradient is estimated, and a correction to remove the disturbance torque from the torque target value is performed. The correction amount is reduced in a downhill road when the accelerator operation amount is less than the predetermined value and a vehicle speed is larger than a predetermined vehicle speed.

A host vehicle has an automatic brake control that is executed for avoiding contact between the host vehicle and a pedestrian upon detecting a pedestrian is present in a forward position of the host vehicle using a front camera and a radar. In a driving assist control method, upon detecting an object in front of the host vehicle to be a pedestrian candidate based on an image signal from the front camera, execution of an automatic brake control is permitted with the detected pedestrian candidate as the control target. Thereafter, whether or not the pedestrian candidate detected by the front camera matches an object detected by the reflected waves from the millimeter wave radar is determined by comparison. Execution of the automatic brake control is continued or stopped based on the result of the comparison determination.
