Abstract
A vehicle control device has a processor configured to set a target torque as a target for driver torque at which generation of anti-torque on a steering wheel is to be initiated, based on a reference torque as a reference for driver torque at which generation of anti-torque is to be initiated against the driver torque produced by operation of the steering wheel by a driver, and a current correction value for the reference torque, to count a number of deviations from a lane marking line of a lane in which the vehicle is traveling while the driver torque exceeds the target torque, and to calculate a new correction value for the reference torque based on a correction coefficient that is set based on the number of deviations, wherein the next target torque is set based on the reference torque and the new correction value for the reference torque.
