Abstract
When the shift position of the automatic transmission is the forward traveling position, it is determined that the sport traveling is being performed, and when it is determined that the permission condition is satisfied, the automatic transmission is downshifted. Thus, the downshift is performed during the execution of the sport running, and the driving torque is easily secured. Further, since the present disclosure is limited to the case where the permission condition is satisfied, for example, the downshift is not executed in a state in which the sideslip suppression control is activated. Therefore, it is possible to easily secure the driving torque while suppressing an unnecessary downshift when the sport travel is executed. It is easy to control the vehicle attitude during the execution of the sport running. In addition, the acceleration performance of the rising edge after the turning is improved.
