Abstract
A driving force controller for vehicle includes a driving force calculator and a driving controller. The driving force calculator calculates an instructed driving force, and includes a first determination unit that determines whether or not a predicted driving force satisfies a first condition. The predicted driving force assumes that the instructed driving force calculated on a first control cycle is changed at a rate of change calculated on the first control cycle, until a second control cycle. The first condition includes that a range between the instructed driving force calculated on the first control cycle and the predicted driving force at least partly cover a first range including a zero driving force. The driving force calculator imposes limitation on the rate of change in the instructed driving force to be calculated in the second control cycle, on the condition that the first condition is satisfied.
