Abstract
A vehicle control system executes automated driving control that controls automated driving of a vehicle based on driving environment information indicating a driving environment for the vehicle. When a part of functions of the vehicle is failed during the automated driving, the vehicle control system executes emergency stop control that stops the vehicle. In the emergency stop control, the vehicle control system: acquires failure status information being information on the failed part of functions; determines, based on the failure status information and the driving environment information, a target stop position at which even the vehicle with the failed part of functions is able to arrive and stop by the automated driving; and executes the automated driving control such that the vehicle travels toward the target stop position to stop at the target stop position.
