Abstract
A vehicle front passenger seat airbag device includes a plurality of inflators, an airbag, and a controller. The airbag includes a front passenger seat airbag, and a center airbag that includes a vehicle-rear-side end that projects out further toward a vehicle rear side when inflated and deployed than a rear end of the front passenger seat airbag when inflated and deployed. The controller controls timings for igniting each squib included in the plurality of inflators such that a peak internal pressure of the airbag inflated and deployed when an oblique collision or small overlap collision has occurred is delayed, compared to a peak internal pressure of the airbag inflated and deployed when a head-on collision has occurred.
