Abstract

An apparatus for improving turning performance of a vehicle includes: a turning characteristic detection module configured to detect a turning situation based on vehicle information obtained from at least one sensor and to calculate a required driving force to be implemented in the vehicle for a turning motion; a driving force estimation module configured to estimate a limited driving force applicable to a drive wheel; and a turning characteristic control module configured to control and apply a braking force corresponding to a difference between the required driving force and the limited driving force to a motor to inhibit a wheel slip, when the required driving force is greater than the limited driving force.
