Abstract
An apparatus and a method for controlling a vehicle includes a driveshaft that transmits a drive torque generated by a drive motor to a wheel, a sensor that obtains a speed of the vehicle, and a controller that monitors the drive torque to determine a change amount of the drive torque, determines a change in a torsion angle of the driveshaft based on the change amount of the drive torque, and determines whether wheel slip occurs based on an amount of speed change of the drive motor according to the change in the torsion angle of the driveshaft. Accordingly, it is possible to accurately determine wheel slip according to the friction of a road surface, providing safe driving to the driver.
