Abstract
A vehicle information calculation apparatus includes a motor torque acquisition unit, an angular acceleration acquisition unit, a contact force acquisition unit, and an inertia moment calculator. The motor torque acquisition unit acquires a torque of a motor that drives a vehicle. The angular acceleration acquisition unit acquires an angular acceleration of the motor. The contact force acquisition unit acquires a contact force of a wheel of the vehicle. The inertia moment calculator calculates an inertia moment of a rotating system of the vehicle including the wheel on the basis of the torque acquired by the motor torque acquisition unit, the angular acceleration acquired by the angular acceleration acquisition unit, the contact force acquired by the contact force acquisition unit, and a coefficient of friction between the wheel of the vehicle and a contact surface.
