Abstract

A vehicle control device controls a driving device in such a manner that driving torque coincides with normal torque. The vehicle control device starts a traction control for controlling the driving device in such a manner that the driving torque coincides with suppressed torque which is smaller than the normal torque, when a predetermined traction control start condition is satisfied. The vehicle control device determines that the driver is in a non-grasp state, when an operation amount has changed to satisfy a condition in an initial determination time period. The vehicle control device starts, at an acceleration time point, an operation priority control for controlling the driving device in such a manner that the driving torque coincides with acceleration priority torque which is larger than the suppressed torque and smaller than the normal torque, if the control device had not determined that the driver was in the non-grasp state.
