Abstract

In this vehicle control device, a low-level short-term trajectory generating unit generates a short-term trajectory by using the newest dynamic external environment recognition information while also using the same static external environment recognition information (lane shape information, or the like) as the static external environment recognition information used by a high-level medium-term trajectory generating unit. Performing such control prevents inconsistency between the external environment information (environmental information) used by the low-level short-term trajectory generating unit and that used for a medium-term trajectory, which is a high-level trajectory, and makes stable trajectory output possible.
