Abstract
A device and a method of controlling a transmission of a vehicle may include a determining device that compares road information related to a first road section corresponding to a road section on which the vehicle is currently traveling and a second road section disposed ahead of the first road section to determine a gradient of the second road section, a calculating device that determines an increase amount of a gradient-inducing resistance based on a difference between gradients of the first road section and the second road section according to a determination result from the determining device, and a controller that compares the increase amount of the gradient-inducing resistance with a reference value to perform transmission control and engine torque control based on comparison of the increase amount of the gradient-inducing resistance with the reference value.
