Abstract

A controller for a vehicle driven by transmitting a torque generated by a torque generator to driving wheels corrects the torque generated by the torque generator according to a torsion rate of an elastic torsion element present in a torque transmission system extending from the torque generator to the driving wheels to reduce the torsional vibration of the elastic torsion element. The torque generator may include an engine and a clutch to transmit a rotation of the engine to the torque transmission system. The controller may include a clutch controller to correct the torque generated by the torque generator by controlling the transmission torque of the clutch according to the torsion rate of the elastic torsion element.
