Vehicle control method, vehicle system, and vehicle control apparatus

Abstract

A vehicle control method is applied to a vehiclein which a front wheelis driven by an engine, and the method includes a basic torque setting step of setting basic torque to be generated by the engine, based on an operational state of the vehicle; a deceleration torque setting step of setting deceleration torque, based on an increase in steering angle of a steering apparatusmounted on the vehicle; a torque generation step of controlling the engineso that torque based on the basic torque and the deceleration torque is generated; and a deceleration torque changing step of changing the deceleration torque, based on a vehicle-width-direction mounting position of a steering wheeland an operation direction of the steering wheelwhen the steering angle is increased. Thus, vehicle posture control is performed in consideration of the vehicle-width-direction mounting position of the steering wheeland the operation direction of the steering wheel, so that a driver fatigue reduction effect of the vehicle posture control can be secured appropriately.
