Abstract
A vehicle control apparatus to be applied to a vehicle includes an electric motor, a brake mechanism, and a control system. The control system increases a friction braking force of the brake mechanism while reducing a regenerative braking force of the electric motor, in deceleration traveling performed in a low vehicle speed range where a vehicle speed of the vehicle is less than a first threshold in a state in which an accelerator operation and a brake operation performed by a driver who drives the vehicle are canceled. The control system corrects correlation data between a control instruction value indicated to the brake mechanism and the friction braking force generated by the control instruction value, by using, as a trigger, a situation in which a change rate of a vehicle acceleration of the vehicle exceeds a second threshold in the deceleration traveling in the low vehicle speed range.
