Abstract
A first active stabilizer is installed on a main drive wheel side, and a second active stabilizer is installed on a subordinate drive wheel side. A control device performs load distribution control when a difference in actual driving force between left and right sides of a vehicle exceeds a threshold value during acceleration. A high-μ side is one of the left and right sides with a greater actual driving force, and a low-μ side is another of the left and right sides. The load distribution control includes a first mode performed when a vehicle speed is equal to or lower than a first reference value. In the first mode, the control device actuates the first active stabilizer in a direction to lift up the high-μ side and actuates the second active stabilizer in a direction to lift up the low-μ side.
