A drive control device of the vehicle controls a left and right driving force difference by a driving device based on a rotational velocity of a rotary electric machine, which imparts a steering force or a steering additive force to a steering system of the vehicle. Furthermore, at a time that there is a deviation or a likelihood of a deviation of the vehicle with respect to a travel path or when an avoidance assistance unit produces a notifying operation or imparts a deviation avoidance assistance steeling force or a deviation avoidance assistance steering additive force, the drive control device prohibits or suppresses control of the left and right driving force difference based on the rotational velocity.

Vehicle

Provided is a vehicle in which overdischarge of a battery is protected and turning drivability of the vehicle is improved when there is even a little remaining capacity. An ECU controls the left motive force and the right motive force of the left electric motor and the right electric motor so as not to exceed a differential torque upper limit value, which is the maximum value of the difference between the left motive force and the right motive force established on the basis of the temperature or discharge limit power of the battery. When the battery is at a low temperature or the like and the discharge power is limited, the difference between the left motive force and the right motive force is controlled on the basis of the discharge limit power, whereby the turnability of the vehicle is improved while preventing the risk of damage to the battery.

Right and left motor output control for vehicle

In a control system and control method for a driving device, opposite distribution control is performed (e.g., stepsto), whereby a left driving force and a right driving force are controlled such that a yaw moment in a direction opposite to a turning direction of the vehicle acts on the vehicle, whereby a left-right driving force difference is generated which is a difference between the left driving force and the right driving force. During performance of the opposite distribution control, when deceleration of the vehicle is obtained, limit control is performed (e.g., step), whereby the left driving force and the right driving force are controlled such that a change in the left-right driving force difference becomes smaller than a change in a left-right driving force sum, which is the sum of the left driving force and the right driving force.

Control system and control method for driving device, and recording medium

Provided is a vehicle that can improve vehicle posture control or operation performance during accelerating turn. A vehicle is provided with: a left drive wheel and a right drive wheel connected to a motor; a required drive power amount input device for inputting a required drive power amount; and a required turn amount input device for inputting a required turn amount. The vehicle further includes a turn control device that adjusts a power difference between the left drive wheel and the right drive wheel on the basis of a time derivative value of the required drive power amount in addition to the required turn amount.

A vehicle is equipped with a rotational velocity acquisition unit that acquires a rotational velocity of a rotary electric machine that imparts a steering force or a steering additive force to a steering system. A drive control device controls a left and right driving force difference by a driving device on the basis of a rotational velocity of the rotary electric machine.
