Abstract
A vehicle according to the present disclosure includes a brake device and an electronic control unit. The brake device is configured to change a front-rear distribution ratio of braking force with respect to front and rear wheels. The electronic control unit is configured to: control the brake device such that the front-rear distribution ratio is in accordance with a fixed distribution characteristic in which the front-rear distribution ratio is constant regardless of deceleration of the vehicle in at least a part of a first range being a required deceleration range lower than a lower limit value of the deceleration perceivable by a person in the vehicle; and control the brake device such that the front-rear distribution ratio is biased toward the rear wheel than that in the fixed distribution characteristic in a second range in which the deceleration is higher than that in the first range.
