Abstract
A driving force control apparatus including a posture detecting part detecting a riding posture of an occupant; an acceleration detecting part detecting an acceleration of a vehicle; a driving force generation part generating a driving force in a manner enabling to change a driving force distribution between a front and rear wheels or between a left and right wheels; and a microprocessor. The microprocessor is configured to perform calculating a required driving force, and controlling the driving force generation part so as to change the driving force distribution to a target driving force distribution to suppress a change of the riding posture while generating the required driving force when a magnitude of the acceleration is greater than or equal to a predetermined magnitude and a degree of change of the riding posture is greater than or equal to a predetermined degree.
