Abstract
A steering control method for a vehicle including a steer-by-wire type wheel-turning mechanism in which a steering wheel and steered wheels are mechanically disconnected, the method including: detecting an actual steering angle of the steering wheel; calculating a target steering angle of the steering wheel on a basis of a target wheel-turning angle of the steered wheels; applying a steering reaction force to the steering wheel according to an angle deviation between the actual steering angle and the target steering angle; detecting a steering operation of the steering wheel by a driver; and when the steering operation by the driver is detected, reducing the steering reaction force according to the angle deviation compared with when the steering operation by the driver is not detected.
