Abstract
A target vehicle speed generation device includes a controller for generating a target vehicle speed of a host vehicle in accordance with a speed limit of a travel path of the host vehicle. The controller includes a speed limit information acquisition unit and a target vehicle speed generation unit. The speed limit information acquisition unit acquires the speed limit of the travel path of the host vehicle during travel. The target vehicle speed generation unit generates a target acceleration together with the generation of the target vehicle speed in accordance with the speed limit. The target vehicle speed generation unit has a first acceleration limiter computation unit that, during the generating of the target acceleration, sets an acceleration limiter to increase in a direction of relaxing a limitation on acceleration correspondingly with an increase in the speed limit.
