Abstract

A vehicle control device that calculates a vehicle body velocity of a vehicle is disclosed. Sensors () that obtain respective wheel velocities of left and right wheels () arranged along the vehicle width direction are provided. A calculator () that calculates, when the left and right wheels () are not slipping, an average value (A) of the wheel velocities as the vehicle body, and calculates, when at least one of the left and right wheels () is slipping, the vehicle body velocity on the basis of the average value (A) and a lower velocity value (B) between the wheel velocities is provided. With this configuration, the precision in calculating the vehicle body velocity is enhanced, suppressing a cost rise.
